Photographer Spotlight: Amanda Driggers

11.01.19 —

Amanda Driggers is born, raised, and permanently based in the south. See below for more images from her series “J’Ouvert” accompanied with quotes written by Amanda accounting her experiences while photographing.

 

 

“There’s a slight chill in the air – the nostalgic kind – it brings an excitement that’s masking anxiety”

 

 

 

“I enter the Parkway cloaked in humility – I am half naked too”

 

“From ten feet away, her confidence knocks me out – we breathe her moment in together”

 

“There are no bathrooms on Eastern Parkway”

 

“The smoke from the jerk sits heavy under the trees – every sense is drenched”

 

 

 

“Every part of my body has moved – my heart switches beats”
