Full transparency.
Emma Grede did not hire me.
I did not have a ticket to her book tour.
I didn't even know she was in town until it was almost too late. By the time I found out, it was sold out.
So I went looking for some audacity.
Found it.
I emailed her team to see if they needed a photographer. Dead end.
I called the box office to see if they had any extra tickets. Another dead end.
So the day of, I just went.
Either they had a ticket or they didn't.
I had the time. Why not try my luck?
Turns out, they did.
And that's how I photographed Emma Grede.
