Description

she was our server at our clubhouse last night...

put two people who are passionate about photography in one booth ... with the new 85/1.2L lens close ... and ... well ...

put a photographically interesting subject a bit more than a meter away ... and ... well ... you know what happens.

so ... after shooting at the chateau marmont ... there was a bit of an afterparty, of which, i invited my best friend, who also happens to be a fuckin' rockin' shooter ... he's a reuters staffer.

we were both hungry ... so ... off to the clubhouse.

it's not a clubhouse. it's a restaurant owned by our friends.

dinner at 11.00p is so nice.

someday we'll actually have to pay i'm sure.

i thought our server was very interesting ... photographically.

i said to her, "please ... think about your grandmother, the one who gave you your necklace."

her grandmother is still in poland.

the wistfulness in her eyes -- i surmise -- is her thinking about her grandmother.

this is why i make photographs.

anywhere.

It's not often I take the time to browse through one of the boss' galleries. I'm glad I did. This is a bloody fantastic shot. Amongst your myriad images of the stars, it's this one that stands out. Always good to shoot with someone who shares the passion. Lovely stuff...
