Stacey Hazen and I got to shoot at the HappyGoLucky immersive art installation in New York City.

Immersive art experiences like this one pop up from time to time, and I always love creating at them. They’re designed to be utilized for photoshoots. The concept is that your friend stands in the art piece and you snap a photo of them. (Thus, the “immersive” part of the experience.) So you become part of the art itself.

The quality varies from installation to installation, but this one was particularly fun because A. Stacey Hazen is extremely talented and fun to shoot with and B. The colors of this HappyGoLucky really popped off.

(Love that “High Line” text on the phone booth)

You can follow Stacey Hazen on IG here and keep an eye on the Ballet Zaida Zine for more shoots with her.

till next time,
