“Taken at Pier 59 Studios in New York, I had set out to capture the purest full portrait of Romee possible. Her delightful quirks and jaw-dropping beauty are a wonderful combination. This portrait describes Romee at a single glance.” - RUSSELL JAMES

At the heart of James’ Angels series are collaborations with many of the most iconic models of our time. The underlying premise is the impact and beauty of the figurative form in all its expressions, a shared part of the human experience. James says,

“I often refer to this as my Trust series. It’s such a privilege that so many amazing people have entrusted me to capture such personal and intimate portraits. It’s partnership at its best.”
