researching this project pretty much turned me into a Storey-groupie.
my first 'nick' shoot, and the first SHOWstudio project I saw from beginning to end. fond fond memories.
I worked on this on my first EVER day at SHOWstudio, and continue to find joy in the images and the wonderful people associated with them. always a real favourite.
