Reggie Watts was a pleasure to work with. Most of the styling came from unusual sources and I was prepared for a lot of rejection, but Reggie loved all of it. He took most of it home and I'm hoping for some of these outfits to resurface at future performances.
Dolly Parton has sold 174 million albums worldwide. She is releasing her 83rd album this year. I went to Nashville for the shoot, but Dolly was sick. We rescheduled in London. I surely did a lot of flying for this picture, but I got to meet Dolly.

Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina for the New York Times Magazine. My first shoot with her was in a run-down-vacant-wood-paneled-strip-mall-office-turned-campaign-headquarters. This time we shot in her beautiful offices in the Capitol building in Columbia.
