Originally, darlings, I wanted to be photographed by Patrick Demarchelier, but he died in 2022; so, unfortunately, that is that. But after looking at the superb color composition, I think Steven Meisel might be the person to photograph me. That is, if he agrees to photograph me on at least some of my terms.
The photo, without question, has to radiate pink. My idea is me peeking through a face hole, surrounded by a wall of real pink flowers, and smiling at the camera. I am telling you, it could make a "VOGUE" cover!!!!!!!!!!!!! ANNA, you hear this???????????????
Of course, photographers have other ideas, and I would be interested in hearing them, but the request that is non=negotiable is that I be surrounded by pink. And with my skin tones, pink is sure to highlight them.
I guess "Schimgadoon," which I recently saw and will report on, is giving me all these Technicolor Vincente Minnelli fantasies. Also, a little bit of Cecil Beaton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How about it, Steven? When and where?????????????

Victoria, David has a cold and UTI right now, but I will metion it to him. I would love to hear your ideas, too!!!!!!!!!!!! Then I could send them to Chloe, who could show them to ANNA. Or should I just send it to ANNA?
Steven Meisel was one of the most influential photographers of the "70s: his work made the covers of magazines like Popular Photography, Modern Photography and Camera 35 every other month! All us geeky camera kids wanted to take photos like him, but were too young to master his multiple exposure calculations or afford the arcane pricey compositing hardware he often employed. He fell out of favor somewhat after the invention of Apple computers and PhotoShop, but his unique all-analog creations still stand out in much the same way Olde Hollywood Technicolor movies seem more impressive and organic than today's computer created blockbusters.
My dear,
I had no idea he was so important. From your wording it seems he has passed on; I might be wrong. If so, then you can do the photo shoot; remember there has to be a lot of pink.
