In April, I captured behind the scenes images and portraits of filmmaker Chelsea Odufu creating an episode of Dr. Martens’ Celebrating Black Voices series. The episode features musician KeiyaA, DJs and eyewear creators Coco & Breezy, plus two Dr. Martens employees, Langston (of Seattle, WA), and Giovanni (NYC). Some of the images I created over those two days in a Brooklyn studio along with some time on the streets can be viewed in the gallery above and you can check out the full feature and episode on the Dr. Martens website here.
