I SHOT HIM, HE SHOT ME

Last summer I went home to visit my family in Memphis, TN and on my way back to New York I got stuck with a long lay-over in Atlanta. I called my  photographer friend, James K. Holder and asked if I could  crash at his place. I got a chance to see his  studio (it is amazing) and he cooked me dinner.




Since I was  there, he asked if he could shoot my portrait. I was feeling  tired and fat (i gained 11lbs during my family visit) but I didnt feel it was fair to say no since he let me shoot his portrait when he was in NY....so I said yes and we shot each other.

I SHOT HIM.....

James has always comfortable with his body so  I shot him nude (of course). I saw this pile of white  fabric in the corner of  his studio and decide to have him drape it over himself with his  giant fan blowing. 



HE SHOT ME....

Sitting in front of someone else's camera  was very hard for  me. I never like being photographed.... I don't even have graduation pictures from high school. This was my first time  having my portrait taken  with a professional photographer. I am very happy with the results..... James did an excellent job.

  1. Damn, James has one BIGGG ASSSS...... LIGHT. Good job to you both...and i'm the same way, I don't really like being photographed by other people. In fact, the only picture I really liked of myself that someone else shot was the last one you took of me with the jeans on my head.
