Hey folks,

Last year I started La Noir Image: my love letter to contemporary black and white photography. It’s worked well enough but has been on hiatus in preparation for its next step forward.

As La Noir Image moves forward as a business, we’re proud to officially announce our brand new KickStarter initiative to fund stage two of the business.

La Noir Image is looking to evolve; and in order to do so we need to become quite a bit more interactive. This interactivity can only be delivered through an e-magzine; and so we’re looking to create an app with subscription, interactivity, etc. We’re asking for $35,000 to fund the first year of the magazine. This money will go towards the monthly expenses: including paying workers fair wages, video production, app design and distribution, etc.

If funded, we can have the first issue out by the end of September.

So please, help us move forward and continue to create something beautiful. Consider funding our Kickstarter initiative.

Thanks,

Sincerely,
Chris Gampat
