Manhattan is my studio, Photographing Sophia Ayaan

I love the number of different backgrounds, moods, and looks that I can get in a one hour photo-shoot in Manhattan.














As I love any chance to hang out in cool cafes meeting creative people and it helps break the ice, I met up with actress, presenter, comedienne and dancer Sophia Ayaan to discuss the shoot, before the shoot.

I turned up early for the photo-shoot and managed to scout out a couple of other locations before Sophia turned up. I found the dark moody subway, a cracked yellow tile background and a arching entrance as well as the already planned neo-Gothic architecture.







In the end the improvised locations worked out better than the planed one. Not knowing exactly what you are going to get from a shoot is half the fun for me.
