Cornell Watson
Cornell Watson is a dope-ass Black photographer based in Durham, North Carolina. His photography is centered around sharing the stories of Black people. His work has appeared in national ad campaigns for companies like T-Mobile and in national publications such as the New York Times and Washington Post.
Cornell is also the 2020 recipient of the Alexia Foundation grant for his award-winning photo series “Behind the Mask,” which has appeared on the Washington Post and Buzzfeed News.
When he’s not creating photos, being the best spouse in the world, or saving his two-year-old daughter from drowning in the toilet, you can find Cornell passed out from exhaustion on the living room couch.
