Photographer Nicholas Calcott took my portrait.

He’s incredibly talented. I’m never comfortable in front of camera; I’d much rather be the observer.

Nicholas Calcott took these in what was my last season in NYC. March 5, 2019. I had no idea. Grateful to have this moment documented. 

I believe a good photographer captures the light that illuminates their subject. Creating a perspective, a distance from yourself, so you get a glimpse as others might see you. Freckles!  I never knew I had them until I saw my portrait when I was 21.  Imagine?!  Like many of us, my perception of self is skewed.  

Nick is good at what he does, and it shows. Thank you for the insight.

Photographer Randy Ryandi recently shot my portrait for his artists series.  Using a Hasselblad & real black and white film, he graced my Bed-stuy studio with his presence.  He's a delight.  Thank you Randy, it was a pleasure.

See more of his work on his website http://randyryandi.com/.  He's not on Instagram - its too mainstream ;)
