Portrait of Rupaul for Paper magazine to coincide with the launch of Supermodel. I had previously worked with Ru shooting the cover of the Supermodel album/cd and publicity images. I was also part of the Supermodel video playing the role of the photographer. It was a long day shooting the video but the best part was in the late afternoon with Rupaul climbing into the fountain in Grand Army Plaza at the corner of 59th & 5th. The styling and hair/makeup was done by the amazing Mathu Anderson and Zaldy. I went on to photograph Rupaul for Out magazine, Entertainment Weekly and several other music projects.
