VALUE IN COLLABORATION | AARON JAY YOUNG - PHOTOGRAPHER | S4/EP BONUS

Hello Creative Lotus Family! On today's episode I sit down and talk creative with photographer AARON JAY YOUNG. In this BONUS episode for Season 4, Young shares about his book "QUEEN" releasing later this year, and shares the process of how building an portfolio of portraits of drag queens and Drag Race superstars that came together to create this beautiful book of portraits from 2016 to 2022. Aaron speaks to the process of valuing the creatives he collaborates with and could not do the work he does without them.
