Polly is in incredible portrait and music photographer based in Oklahoma City. Really able to capture the soul of every person she photographs, I admire her work. She also founded the BlackWomenPhotographers website, creating a community and a platform for Black women to get hired and highlighted in the industry.

This is an interview series to feature badass concert photographers. When I started my career in music photography, there weren't a lot of resources out there for women, and I was at a loss for who to turn to, who would understand my concerns and questions. This series was started for two reasons: in hopes to help those starting their careers and get the advice and tips that they need, as well as creating a safe space for everyone to talk about experiences & prejudices faced in the music industry, share advice, and how they got to where they are today.
