Slack

Tanya came into town from Philly to shoot with amazing photographer Gary Breckheimer yesterday. I picked up her slack - Tanya and I are good friends and proven collaborators and she would do (almost) anything for me as a model. And she's quite the little shooter, herself.

I also love the challenge of doing something honest and interesting (at least to me) with elements of cliché.

Tanya, of course had the proper socks for her skates.
