Arisce Wanzer is a fashion model living and working in New York City — and she's also a trans woman. A behind-the-scenes look at a day on the job.
Wanzer let BuzzFeed tag along — and talked about her life and work — as photographer Fred Attenborough shot her for the latest collection from Genevieve Clifford.
"The vibe on set that day was a lot of fun because the energy was good, and the music was good. The photographer had his iPod going. Great stuff. Some good club-banging music. The photographer gave me direction to be very commercial, very Macy's department store, fun girl. That kind of thing. And what's funny is that I'm usually high fashion or really sexy; I never get to be commercial. So being 'fun' was kind of difficult. I'm used to getting direction about being fierce and strong, strong, strong!"
