Walter Iooss, Serena Williams, and the impromptu portrait session

Have you seen those cheeky Tampax print ads of Serena Williams whacking a tennis ball in the direction of Mother Nature?

Walter shot them. And afterward, he had an impromptu portrait session with the tennis pro. Here’s the photo, plus the text of an email Walter sent me:

“this shoot was done 2 days after her wimbledon victory and she came in exhausted. she is a great girl and very in control of the moment, except the night of the u.s. open. i took a few minutes after she finished with the video for the shoot to take some portraits for myself. i could see all she wanted to do was leave, but because of our long standing relationship she said o.k. the first shot i took her guard was down and the pix was overexposed, but there she was …vulnerable.”
