Melanin x Color: NY Photographer Poses Black Women Against Colored Backdrops for Stunning Photo Series

It is “too dark” or “too light”, but New York photographer Chandler Easley of the Cherry Collab highlights the simple beauty of black skin by posing women of color against vivid backdrops. Check out some of the stunning pictures;

  1. I need these printed and posted in my dorm room. Absolutely gorgeous. Easily some of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.

  2. Wow. The photographer and makeup artist worked with the skin undertones and backdrops really well. This is art.

  3. omg this is the same guy who posted all of someone’s nudes and sent them to her school because she wouldn’t sleep with him. disgusting human being. idk how much he claims to love black women.

  4. We do rock vibrant colors really well. I see it when we rock bright African clothing/fabric. Color does really pop against our skin tone. I wished we did it more, especially with the natural hair. We simply look gorgeous with that combo.
