Latex Day at the Gershwin Hotel

This was a fun shoot!
The idea for this shoot came from my friend and advisor Suzanne Sease. We’re leaving interpretation of the image to the viewer, although another friend has suggested that this might be the perfect way to quit smoking.

I was a bit nervous about how Shannon would do wearing the latex hood since she didn’t have previous experience. I know some people find hoods terribly claustrophobic, but she was a total trooper. I love her spirit.

At the end of the day, we asked artist and impresario Neke Carson to stop by for a drink.
Very special thanks to our stylist Tanya Seeman for the amazing job of getting Shannon into and out of the latex, to her friend John for moral support and cigarette wrangling, to the Gershwin Hotel for the fabulous back lobby location, and to The Baroness, elegant latex fashion designer and hostess of fabulous parties, for lending us the catsuit.
