From Aaliyah to Jay-Z: Captured moments in hip-hop history - Jonathan Mannion

This is a notorious B.I.G.

  This is a notorious(声名狼籍的) B.I.G. 1995, the Palladium Nightclub(夜总会), New York City. What really I want to talk about is my dedication( 奉献), my 100% focus, and finding something that I love, my passion(激情) point. I fought to be on the stage, to be able to stand next to Little Kim and take all these pictures to create one definitive(决定性的) photo, a photo that was most important of anything that I took. And I really wanted it for future generations(一代) to be able to feel the energy that was in that room, and certainly you can feel that right there. I'm a photographer( 摄影师).
  This is what I do for a living(生活). I chase(追逐) these moments, these fractions(小部分) of seconds that will never be the same again. You can't take this picture again because I took it, and he's no longer with us. Sadly, rest in peace. The definitive portrait(消像) of that person in that moment is what I strive(努力) for every single time out. Like(喜欢) when you close your eyes and think of a picture of Jay(松鸡)-Z, I want it to be my picture.
  So far, so good. Eight album(相簿) covers for Jay(松鸡)-Z later, not doing too bad. Aaliyah, gorgeous( 华丽的) and amazing. And I really spent proper(适合的) time with her, conversing(谈话), having a conversation, connecting to her, which I find is a big part of my work, that connection(连接) to be able to have a conversation, to say you're doing great, to say why I want a certain picture and a certain attitude(态度). In this moment, we talked about shooting in the Caribbean(加勒比海), and it's a sort of a passion point for me, Caribbean culture, Trinidad, Barbados, Jamaica. And I said, "We should do a photo shoot(发芽) there because I think it would be incredible."
  And she said, "Yeah, you know, let's do it." You know, as we're taking these beautiful pictures, all this is happening. I'm continuing to converse with her and really connect. So she believed in my vision(视) at that moment. You know, even while all the work was happening, there was a human connection that happened. At the end of the day, I have people sign Polaroids, just as kind(种类) of a diary for myself.
  And she wrote, "I can't wait for the Caribbean. I'll see you then." You got to take a breath(气息).
