LUCY MCKENZIE, 1997
I first met Lucy when I was doing a show in London when my book New York Girls came out. I showed my films in an auditorium over there and she came to the screening. Back then, when I showed my films, there would always be one woman in the audience who would stand up and go, ‘Why are we forced to look at these bad images of sex and violence?’ At this London screening, Lucy stood up and said something like that and I thought, ‘Here’s the girl who does it at this screening.’ But then she came up to me afterward and she wasn’t like that at all. She was really asking the questions on an intellectual level. She told me, ‘I live in Glasgow. If you come up, I’ll get you some models to shoot.’ So I did, but out of all the girls she showed me, she was the coolest-looking one. Once I started shooting her, we kept working together for years. I’ve taken thousands of photos of her. I shot her for a ton of porn magazines and she had no problem with it. She was just like, ‘I can take this money and go travel.’ This shot was taken in a hotel in Paris.
