All photographers have their own way of bringing out the best (and sometimes the worst) of whomever they are attempting to capture in time. In the case of Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, whose studio is located in his cozily imposing home (a neo-gothic, former German Roman Catholic rectory in New York City), it has always been to make the subject feel at ease. Facades are lifted. Trust is estab- lished. Friendships are either forged or reinforced. Synergy is created.
