Melanin Pool Poppin.
While the idea was not my own, we have Amber Curry (pictured image left) to thank for that, I had the premise of capturing “The Cookout.” Melanin Pool Poppin, the event, provided the vehicle.
Melanin Pool Poppin’ was an event created by Amber Curry to bring black people together around the pool. Events took place every Sunday during open swim hours at rotating venues around Nashville.
I used this time to capture us on film.
