11 - 30 - 23 Went to Queens, NY to photograph Jake. F2M Trans, who is 43 years of age. He started transitioning in 2012, had top surgery in 2013 and is not interested in having bottom surgery. Said the surgery is too invasive. Takes male hormones and is a "gentleman", even walked me back to the train station, when returning into Manhattan.

11 - 17 - 23 Cass is 28 years of age,a transwoman, M2F, started transitioning in 2017 and takes female hormones. Lives in Brooklyn with roommates, has a steady job in the arts and wants to start performing in drag shows. She is planning on having bottom surgery, vaginoplasty in 2024 and wants me to return after the surgery to do new photographs. Will definitley return.

11 - 16 - 23 Tristen is 31 years of age, college grad who works in the theater industry. He is non-binary, gay and is comfortable exploring his feminine side, by wearing lingerie, long-painted fingernails and other female clothing. I went to his Washington Heights apartment to do the photo shoot of him and also up on his roof. Very photogenic, very cool, awesome person.

11 - 9 - 23 Went to the Bronx to photograph Yanita and Maddy, both who started doing drag about 9 months ago for the fun of it and to be creative. They see lots of other Queens who are very competitive when performing at the Clubs, but they prefer to be more low-key and just have fun, fun, fun. They like the community and frequent the clubs where their are shows, off and on. Both are in their 20's, havejobs and do drag as a creative outlet.
