Some of your subjects, such as Nathan, Jade, and Daisy appear more personal than your other photos. Do you make it a habit to get to know your subjects before shooting them?
I much prefer to work within a small team, or even just me and my subjects. For the past six months I have been shooting a series called I'M SO HOT, I CAN'T WEAR PANTS, which basically consists of a series of naked fashion portraits of different guys: so skinny guys, fat guys, old guys, young guys, all sorts, and with a lot of them I haven't had a chance to meet before I shoot them. And you know, to bare all to a loved one, never mind a complete stranger takes a lot of trust and courage. I try to bring that comfort out in people so that they will give me as much as I give myself when in front of the camera. To work within this way was quite exciting as well, as it meant I could spontaneously play off the situations/locations I was in, as well as the personalities as they presented themselves.
