We lost someone in our community.
I don't think I ever told him how grateful I was to him. He was one of the first photographers I encountered coming into the scene. Because of him I came to expect to be treated equal to those who land within the traditional beauty myth.
I skipped sad and went directly to livid whenever a photographer only shot me tits up or used some sort of slimming technique or refused to shoot me at all because he captured us all so magnificently.
He captured me in ways that challenged me because the images were so powerful and beautiful.
Thank you Johnny Crash.
Thank you for introducing so many of us to ourselves 💔
