I’m Keonna Thomas, and I go by KTV — a surrealist photographer and visual storyteller creating cinematic imagery rooted in identity, memory, and transformation. My creative journey started with poetry, imagined monologues, and homemade films before photography became the language that stayed with me. What began as documenting moments grew into building worlds — shaping set, story, emotion, and symbolism into images that feel like still frames from a dream. Today, my work explores womanhood, vulnerability, and the inner truths we do not always say out loud. Through surreal portraiture and intentional detail, I create images that invite people to pause, reflect, and see themselves more honestly.
I create so people do not just view the work — they feel it.
