The Black Magic Rodeo Residency brought together six photographers in total to explore, document, and develop their craft through the lens of Black rodeo history. The conversation highlights the importance of confidence, audacity, and community in creative work — and the powerful imprint this residency will leave on future generations.Special shoutout to the other residents: Brian Edwards Jr.,  Samone Kidane, & Tosin Popoola <3You can find, hire, or reach Da'Shaunae at: website, instagram, [email protected] can find, hire, or reach Amber at: website, instagram, [email protected]/Listen to Photographer Life Check ⁠⁠⁠on Youtube , Apple, Spotify Amazon Music, iHeart Radio, ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠, & TikTokPhotographer Life Check is a BWP Network Original
