Commercial performed photos (85 individual images)

In Kyoto, Japan I discovered costume photo studios where customers are dressed up (wigged and made up) to be photographed as geishas. Back home in New England, I explored local costume photo shops - to pose as a Fisherwoman in Gloucester, a Pilgrim in Plymouth, and a (Halloween) Witch in Salem. For several years I collected souvenir Tourist Pictures of myself, sometimes posing as more than one character to later Photoshop together for a group photo.
