OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Alaina René Williams Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I am a full time photographer in Knoxville, TN specializing in wedding and portrait/fashion. I knew my passion for photography at 11 years old and it grew even greater over the years. I began my business at only 18 years old and went full time at 21.
I believe in telling people’s stories, every story deserves to be told authentically and joyfully captured with a fresh and true touch of color.
This submission is about a production I hosted for women of color! It was to inspire them and others about how confident, radiant and strong we (as women) can be!
This production was to support, honor and recognize these women who have built a life of strength, confidence and success.
My goal is for other people to be moved by this as well and spread the light!
Let’s get the word out to support and honor the beautiful stories that have been told!

More Exhibits
The Angela Howard Exhibit
During this past year with everything else, I felt paralyzed from moving forward-with my dreams. I had to sit with discomfort and allow everything to move at ITs own pace. After completing these dream boards, I took my own advice and moved ahead on a whim without attachment and my dream came true.
The Yasmin Murphy Exhibit
Hello!! My name is Yasmin Murphy and I am a photographer residing in Knoxville, Tennessee. Photography for me is the thing that allows me to be who I truly am: connecting with others, building relationships, and being creative. I love the opportunities that have allowed me to tell others stories and make their vision come to life. When I am not photographing I am bouncing around to estate sales, cooking a meal at home, or exploring Knoxville.
The Yvette Bodden Exhibit
I share these stories because I believe the spirit of a woman is one of a warrior. We are designed to withstand pain but the magic is in transforming it into greatness. Human beings have the power to create beauty from any circumstance, if the belief in self-worth and love is strong enough to bring yourself out of darkness.
