James Patterson for Palmer Mag
When photographing someone who has been captured thousands of times, the challenge lies in finding a fresh perspective. For this portrait series, I set out to explore what it would look like to photograph the mind of James Patterson—the mind of a man who has written millions of words. I wanted to create portraits that reflected his writing style: sharp, thoughtful, and full of depth. Each frame became a visual exploration of his internal world, capturing moments of stillness and intensity that speak to the intricacy of a mind constantly at work.
