by kwakualston
This project is one of my proudest collaborations. The opportunity to photograph these incredible actors and capture their spirits channeling Black Panther is an experience that I will always remember. Two weeks before we flew to Atlanta to photograph the Black Panther cast, I visited Disney for the first time to show my portfolio. After the meeting, Disney’s Jason Dunne and Laurence Schroeder hired me for the project. The shoot was in conjunction with Entertainment Weekly’s cover under the […]

To meet Showtime’s creative needs, they requested high speed burst photography in addition to traditionally captured portraiture.
