b for a cure

This is our first post, so I thought I would start of by giving you and idea of our concept and a sample photo of what we are trying to do.

Breasts are beautiful

We all have them and we are all susceptible to breast cancer.

In an effort to highlight the magnificence of breasts and the importance of their health, I am undertaking a unique project that will compile black and white photographs of anonymous nude breasts in a coffee table book format. Subjects will span all walks of life and will include everyday women, celebrities and politicians. My intent is to release the project in limited editions annually, with a portion of the net proceeds donated to charities supporting breast health.

The inaugural edition of the project will focus on the breasts of women (even though we men are susceptible to the plight of breast cancer as well). The format and subjects of the project may change from edition to edition but will all share the theme of nude breasts.

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women today (after lung cancer) and is the most common cancer among women, excluding non-melanoma skin cancers. According to the American Cancer Society, about 1.3 million women will be diagnosed with breast cancer annually worldwide and about 465,000 will die from the disease.

By participating as a subject in, or purchasing a copy of our limited edition coffee table book, you will help make this project a success!

Cheers!
