Alyscia Cunningham is a US-based portrait and editorial photographer who recently launched a crowd-funding campaign for “I Am More than My Hair: Bald and Beautiful Me”.
“I Am More than My Hair” is an awareness/social-change photography project that focuses on the beauty of being bald and follows Alyscia’s first book “Feminine Transitions” featuring a series of portraits that reveal the natural beauty of women of diverse ages and backgrounds without make-up on. Alyscia’s work celebrates natural beauty while also inviting us to challenge what beauty – real beauty – means to us, even when hair is lost.

Hi Alyscia! How are you? First, I want to say that I always enjoy your writing. You know how to captivate your audience. The interview you did was awesome sauce!!!

I believe in what you are doing, and would like to shine more light on it. The format would be very similar to what you just shared, but with a little twist. I would like to feature you in the September newsletter. Any thoughts?
