About a month ago, I was in Washington Square Park taking photos for one of my professors, Rae Wright. She has been helping me out on the film Mozart of Rap, and I figured it would be fun for both of us to do a headshot session. Normally she has to pay a lot for headshots, but I did it for her for free. She told me she was going for a certain type of look, the "white trailer trash mom look." So, take a peek and let me know what you think!
