"It was my goal to really capture the spirit of the person," says talented portrait photographer Jaimie Milner about the people she photographed for her book over the last decade. She noticed that there was already adequate coverage for talented black men in cinema and music.
But the everyday black man was someone who wasn't consistently recognized for his skills or even his presence. Jaimie set out to change this and over the course of a little over 10 years, brought out a book of portraits called The Gifted Project. In this interview, she tells us what inspired her book and why there's still a long way to go for black men to have a well-deserved spotlight on them. . thephoblographer.com
