About Velvet Lenae
Velvet Lenae didn't set out to become a sex educator. She started as a photographer capturing the essence of Black bodies without apology, publishing "Bare It All" in 2014 when no one else was celebrating Black sensuality this way.
But art alone couldn't answer the questions people kept asking, "How do I actually do this? How do I unlearn the shame?"
So she became certified. Certified Master Sexpert. Clinical Sexuality Coach. Sex Educator. And in 2026, she rebranded to SRS | Sweet • Raw • Sticky™, creating a company devoted to the Four E's: Education, Expression, Experience, and Empowerment.
Now she teaches Black Women how to integrate pleasure into everyday life through workshops, retreats, products, and partnerships like SRS x BlkTouch.
