Got the Nile runnin’ through my body Meet Akeem Biggs Snaps by Jeremy Kost.
Snapping in Los Angeles, Jeremy and Akeem gathered ’round to have this fresh snaps. Right now we are living in very delicate times and with great changes.
We’re so happy to say that Jeremy Kost is sharing this work with us. Akeem is a very handsome boy, with a great personality and handsome.
The work of Jeremy is organic
His sense to portrait models is very organic, can be very sutil, he always looking for beautiful faces, gracing bodies and natural backgrounds.
“Akeem, thank you for being a part of my journey to a more diverse art practice.”
Jeremy Kost
“An artist in his own right, Akeem moved to LA from Mississippi a few years ago. After seeing my post in February, he reached out, and I’m so happy to have been able to work together.”
This is a beautiful work of Akeem and Jeremy.
We invite you to see this stunning work of Jeremy’s Polaroids from the last three days of protesting alongside so many heroes in Los Angeles.

I like the photos in this post by Akeem and Jeremy. Some have a vintage feel to them. (I have not seen a Polaroid photo in many years.)
I really recommend to see Jeremy Kost book, full of vintage Polaroid with stunning models.
