What effect do you think Instagram has had on the field of photography? Do you Instagram? 
"Instagram put photography in just about everyone's hands. It made photography easy to digest, interactive, and of course, shareable (which is key). I love Instagram and I do it often!"

What has been your favorite project so far and why? 
"Ugh, this is a tough one! Maybe photographing Lindsay Lohan and Sasha Grey for Richard Phillips. I was in L.A. for his film shoots, photographing the girls on set. Lindsay and Sasha were lovely to work with, and, of course, Richard is brilliant and always super fun to be around."

What can we look forward to from you in terms of future projects?
"Currently I'm working with Norma Kamali on her campaign to stop the objectification of women. We'll have a short video out soon to bring awareness to the issue. Other than that, I recently expanded my photo studio to establish a home for my new agency, Stoneman Creative. We're working on lots of fun projects this year and you're invited to the studio anytime, Refinery!"

What is one thing you remind yourself every day? 
"Those bikram classes you bought on Groupon are going to expire, Christelle. (Womp!)"
