Our Founder
Josiane Faubert is an artist and photographer who was born in Gabon. She brings the diversity of her cultures into a harmonized identity to empower communities and influence conversations. She founded PICHA Stock, a stock photo agency that brings curated, diverse visuals that enable brands and businesses to tell richer stories that include Black communities. With her passion for authentic images, she conceptualized PICHA as a catalyst for changing the widely accepted one-dimensional narratives of Afrocentric communities by providing companies and institutions a platform to access adequate visual representation. Josiane strongly believes that images have the power to shift perceptions, change narratives and tell the right stories that matter. Josiane is based in Seattle, WA-USA
