The "Nagu" deck features a closeup of model Leah Estella. "Nagu" actually means "face" in Estonian.
When this image was shot in 2009, Leah and I had known each other for 7 years. The irony is that we knew each other because I cast her in my short film, but this was actually our very first photoshoot. Over half a decade and we had never gotten together as "model" and "photographer" before we did this photosession! Nevertheless, it is always a pleasure to spend an afternoon taking pictures with someone that you know really well. Having some comfort and familiarity makes the time spent together that much more fun and carefree.
Our good times show up in the photos, I think. The quirky look in her eyes says it all. The girl is a joy to photograph. Now you can hold her cute little dollface in your hands when you buy the Nagu board.
