Katy Perry, Visualization, and Meditation — How 1 Photographer Preps For the Met Gala

"You have to remember that even though they're all famous in someone else's eyes, different people are built differently. Some celebrities thrive in the spotlight, while others shy away and move quickly through the line. Katy Perry comes to mind as someone who really enjoys being on the red carpet, and that can be a real help to photographers. You learn to work with everyone's preferences and styles. We cover so many events — six or seven nights a week — that we see the same faces over and over. You get used to their preferences and choices. Though sometimes people can surprise you if they're in particularly good mood."
