Visura donated up to $15,000 in lifetime Plus accounts to up to 30 black women photographers working in visual journalism, portraiture, documentary, photojournalism, stills, creativity, fine art, videos, and short film. Visura founder Adriana Teresa Letorney also volunteered to offer three one-on-one 30-minute consultation meetings to each of the winners in an effort to offer guidance and design support during the process.

The first 15 members have been selected!
