She recounts the opportunity she had to photograph one of the artistic icons of her youth on an assignment for one of the biggest brands in LA. And she delves deep into her inner self to share an image from her self-portrait series Las Cuatro Direcciones and why it is a return to a path she started on as an art school student.
