Leslie Kershaw Photography provides a visual voice to communities that under-represented in family imagery.Problem: Lack of diversity in mainstream family photography A simple google search of the term "family photography" displays a set of images that lack diversity in family make-up, location, race, age, and economic background. Solution: Create images that celebrate, highlight and represent ALL families using the stock photography industry as a catalyst for change Use this initiative to educate stakeholders on the importance of visual representation as a driver of change.
I will use this space as a studio to create and complete several images to add to my stock portfolio. My vendor has been anxious to receive more work from me. The limitation of a studio space makes it challenging to submit photographs to the platform's standard.
Peerspace is on a mission to bring people together. We believe it is impossible to achieve that goal unless we also fight for equality and access to resources in the communities we serve.
Having a space to gather, create, and exchange ideas is an important part of any movement. In order to magnify voices that are often quieted, Peerspace will sponsor venues for people who challenge prejudice and fight for social justice and equality.
Each quarter, we will sponsor space for three projects that are relevant to our community. These projects can range from fundraisers and educational initiatives to art exhibits and photo series.
