Black + White Pt. 1

After a couple months of dreaming about an all black and white photo shoot with my friend Cody, we were finally able to coordinate some leisure time together. I think I had a lot of inspiration in the back of my mind, but the two things I know had a bit of influence was the photographs from this shoot and all the genius that came from this lady.

For the next few days I will try to entertain you with our progress.
