 Adama Jalloh-

 Adama Jalloh is a London-based portrait and documentary photographer who specializes in highlighting Black beauty through stylized images. Although Jalloh piques my interest in general, I was particularly drawn to a recent exhibition titled "An Ode to Afrosurrealsim."

The dream-like posing and costuming of the images were very intriguing to me and offered an effect similar to that of what I am attempting to achieve.
