Friday Photographer: Jessica Williams

As if she needs any more atten­tion! But I can’t help it. Jes­sica is really good, 20 years old and goes to Cooper Union. She’s blow­ing up. She has shown 12 times since 2004 all over North Amer­ica, has a whole ros­ter of print clients AND we hap­pened to have gone to the same high school at the same time. She’s friends with Emily Grenader, a long­time friend of mine, Cooper Union stu­dent and future Fri­day photographer.

Any­way, Jes­sica is amaz­ing. She shoots pretty mun­dane sub­jects, which is some­thing I love, using a 6×9 medium for­mat cam­era, mean­ing she gets great detail with a 2:3 ratio iden­ti­cal to 35mm. I totally have to get one of those.
