Candids

Dave Naz,Eric Kroll
Candids is a collection of professional but unstaged photographs taken from behind the curtain of the sex worker industry by notable counter-culture photographer, Dave Naz. Many of Candids images were taken during breaks, before makeup, before shooting, and before many of the models had gone onto successful careers. "It isn't street photography," says Naz. "These are deliberate moments being captured adjacent to magazine and advertising projects that are intended to express a more human side of the shooting process and the lifestyles of those involved."
