Los Angeles-based photographer and artist Maggie West presents STAND 2018—a portrait series for the benefit of Planned Parenthood. The photos—which will be showcased in a large art installation in Downton LA on Tuesday—features a diverse group of models, actors, musicians, adult performers, and even CGI Instagram influencers who support and stand with the nonprofit organization.
