On Saturday, April 14, the NOH8 Campaign brings its mobile photo studio to the Gay Community Center of Richmond.

The NOH8 Campaign is a silent protest created by celebrity photographer Adam Bouska and his partner Jeff Parshley as a response to the passage of Proposition 8 in California.

Photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths, symbolizing their voices being silenced by Prop 8 and similar legislation around the world, with “NOH8″ painted on one cheek in protest.

This will be the campaign’s first event in Virginia.  Photos are taken on a first come, first served basis from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.

From Facebook:

When you arrive, you will receive a numbered model release to fill out, followed by receiving your NOH8 tattoo. We will call numbers throughout the day, and your corresponding release number will signal your time to line up to have your photo taken.

Solo portraits are $40 per person and couples and group portraits are $25 per person.  Once taken, the photos are processed and made available in digital format at www.NOH8Campaign.com.
