In this episode of Skipping Class, hosted by Lalaa Shepard, we sit down with photographer, creative director, and founder of Cam Kirk Studios to talk about his journey from PG County, Maryland to becoming one of the most influential creatives in hip-hop. Cam Kirk opens up about coming up during Atlanta’s “renaissance” era, his time at Morehouse College, and how he built his name by throwing events and creating opportunities from the ground up. He shares the story behind working with Gucci Mane’s “Trap God” exhibit, shooting the iconic Trap House 3 cover, and collaborating with some of the biggest names in the culture. We also dive into his experiences working alongside artists like Young Thug, Metro Boomin, Travis Scott, Young Scooter, and more—plus the reality of growth, loss, mental health, and evolving as both a creative and a person. From building Cam Kirk Studios into a cultural hub to defining what “progress” really means, this conversation is full of game, inspiration, and real Atlanta history. Tap in and get inspired.
