Photographer Calls Out Quavo For Jacking Her Photo & Not Properly Crediting Her
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz83 Photography can be very rewarding, but most of the time, it’s a thankless job. One photographer took to Twitter to express that, and it opened the flood gates. Breanna Seward, 25, is a woman of many talents. She is a multimedia artist, licensed aesthetician, and photographer whose work has been featured on sites like HelloBeautiful (part of the iOne Digital network), BuzzFeed, and Allure Magazine. She took to Twitter this week to share a story about the time she took a photo of Migos member Quavo back in 2019 that he liked so much that he had time to take off her page and repost but didn’t give her credit for. In the tweet’s caption that included a screenshot of the Instagram post, she wrote, “I wonder how many book...

Our top Instagram shots of 2020
From playful puffins to daunting peaks, we share our top 10 Instagram shots of 2020 Kia has already written about how 2020 has been, uhm, testing to say the least. The year began with great promise, as you will see below, but it wasn’t long before all our trips got cancelled or postponed. As such, many of this year’s Instagram photos were either reflective posts about past trips or shots from hiking and camping jaunts pinched between UK lockdowns. I was fortunate enough to squeeze in a couple of European trips during the summer. In July, I met up with one of my oldest and best friends for a hiking tour of Berchtesgaden National Park in Germany’s Bavarian Alps. Then, in September, I took part in the Highlander Velebit trek in Croatia. Despite these trips, there’s no use pretending...
