Portraits - Willow “Heart”

As soon as I met Willow I knew I wanted to shoot something with her. This collaboration with Willow was a three-way collaboration between Willow, Luca Calo (Makeup Artist) and me. The range of images we shot with Willow is so vast and varied.

My goal was to take Willow’s inspiration, as I would the inspiration of any creative director or creative team, and use perspective, color, and light to flesh out the idea. She is a woman of dualities. She is extremely nice soft-spoken, and caring but with a fascination for transgression, gore, and knives, so I let that feed the spirit of the session, a balance between dark and light.
