Three years ago, I had the good fortune to photograph Amanda Knox for an article in Der Spiegel about her life at the time. You never really know what to expect from a subject when you show up for a shoot, but I wasn’t surprised to find that both Amanda and her husband, Christopher, are incredibly welcoming, engaging, and thoughtful people. And funny! It was a total pleasure getting to know them a little bit over the course of the shoot, and when it was over, I realized I’d’ve been more than happy to keep it going.
Fast forward nearly three years. Out of the blue, I was delighted to hear from them—they needed to update their headshots for their myriad endeavors. What endeavors, you ask? Well, Amanda gives frequent interviews and talks, her new book Free is coming out in March, their Hulu miniseries will be released this year, their podcast Labyrinths is a popular and fascinating listen, and if all that were not enough, they also perform standup comedy. And those are just the things I know about.
Long story short, I got to spend another lovely day at their place with them, their producer Andre, my longtime friend and frequent assistant Josh, and our hair and makeup stylist Lindsey. A huge thank you to all these wonderful people. Here’s a little BTS, courtesy of Josh.
