I've been privileged to photograph Gay a few times over the years, for magazines and book covers, etc.

I was looking for something the other day and came across these images from one of our shoots a few years ago.

I used to ask the well known people I photographed if they'd pull faces. Most wouldn't, but to my delight and surprise, Gay really went for it.

It speaks volumes for the man's professionalism and self confidence that he humoured me.
