Happy Pride Month! June is, without a doubt, the most colorful and unapologetic time of the year. Pride amplifies the LGBTQIA + community’s voice and uplifts the message of “loud and proud” queerness. Why cant it be pride every month?

Speaking of amplifying voices, TikTok has become an important vehicle for the LGBTQIA + community to express themselves. Many gay, non-binary, and gender varying influencers have built meaningful platforms on TikTok; proving it remains a safe place for LGBTQIA + youth and allies.

Woman are a force of nature. We are mothers, leaders, lovers, artists, sensitive, and fierce.

Photographer Angelika Buettner celebrates this in her stunning series I Am, where she photographs and empowers 40+ women in the nude.
