Alveoli t hese photographs of the model Glass Ol- ive are now more than six months old, which— given the amount of shooting I am currently doing—seems like a lifetime ago. And yet they remain among my favorite images. They occurred thanks to the convergence of a set of extremely fortunate conditions. Of course, there was Olive herself, a gorgeous and skilled model. And then there was her cavernous Williamsburg loft with its endless bank of north-facing windows, setting the room aglow on that clear-skied February day. Finally, our meeting occurred last in a concentrated series of shoots, four over the course of a three-day visit to the city. By that morning, I was exhausted from having overbooked myself, but also locked in something of a groove, and I think it comes across here. My photography has grown leaps and bounds since these were taken, but there is nothing I would change about them. ‡ © Alveoli pages 24-29 24 CLEAR NUDE | SUMMER 2014 CLEAR NUDE | SUMMER 2014 25
