Olesha Haskett
Founder · The Coterie Noir & Boudoir for Black Womxn
"Black boudoir photographers offer healing for Black women by offering a safe place to show up authentically, and explore their sensuality in front of our lens."
Based in Maryland, Olesha is a traveling boudoir photographer, educator, and keynote speaker with a BFA and MBA. She created The Coterie Noir and Boudoir For Black Womxn to showcase the talent of Black boudoir photographers in the United States and beyond — and to build the community she always wished existed.
