creative projects: queer enough

These portraits are the product of slow photography. The experience of being photographed was intended to be a pleasure - warm, intimate, playful. Not uncomplicated but something special, a sanctuary. A place to be without fear of being wrong, to speak yourself out instead of being consumed. 

We made these portraits together, beyond looking, and towards being seen. This project is for anyone who has felt despair in a changing room; who wonders if they are enough. 

Supported by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and donations from 99 Kickstarter backers.
