people who think we should stop all immigration are so mindblowingly stupid. lets take it further then and not accept any goods from overseas. or cheap labor that our businesses love to exploit. if we are too good for asians to come here and contribute to our society lets not…
I love the variety of people that you get to meet along this journey. When I first started shooting I mainly looked to my friends and my family members as subjects. Then my girlfriend and her friends. After that I began to shoot complete strangers (in the nude) for my series Friends and Strangers. I’ve shot dancers on pointe, Olympic athletes and even dogs & cats. From there it was development models and now experienced models. For other commissioned work I was asked to shoot bands and then powerful icons in Los Angeles. On this day I was able to shoot with a young hollywood actress, Jamie Chung. I wanted the images from the shoot to exude a powerful yet elegant presence, which Jamie naturally brought. With each project I begin to feel more comfortable no matter who it is that I am shooting. It is about preparation, collaboration, and critical thinking on your toes. Check out the work when you get a chance. - tk
