It is a safe place, a blank space to freak out in, to construct a new reality, to live your life as you see fit, while making sense of the world around you.

BUDWEISER STUDIOS: PORTRAITS BY SHANIQWA JARVIS
Bold. Beguiling. Boss. These are a few of the words and sensibilities that embody photographer Shaniqwa Jarvis’ work and personality.
Her photographs are authentic and pure which squarely puts the focus on the subject. Shaniqwa’s eye seemingly peers right into the soul of the individual she is photographing. Budweiser hosted a pop-up photo studio at AFROPUNK Atlanta where Shaniqwa was able to turn her lens on our community and emphasize this year’s mantra “WE SEE YOU.” In collaboration with AFROPUNK, our Chief Content Officer Emil Wilbekin selected some of his favorite images to share with you.
