Donna, November 1986. Nikon FM2. Kodak T-Max 400.
My first “pretty girl” photo. She reminded me of Cybill Shepherd, and I couldn’t believe she said yes.
This wasn’t a bikini shoot, but it might’ve been where everything really started.
Donna Bullard was the first model I ever worked with who felt like she belonged on the pages of something. I remember thinking, She looks like Cybill Shepherd.
We shot in a makeshift studio — just a wall, a blanket, and a borrowed strobe. I had no idea what I was doing, but she made it easy.
I look back at this frame and still can’t believe I took it.
