In Episode 1, Adam and Laura visit legendary photographer Dominique Nabokov at her New York flat.

Dominique’s first interior photography series was commissioned by The New Yorker in 1995, when the magazine asked her to capture “portraits” of notable New Yorkers by photographing their living rooms, but free of their residents. The result, later dubbed “interior photography portraiture,” featured the homes of Susan Sontag, Allen Ginsberg, Oscar de la Renta, Diane von Furstenberg, Joan Didion, and many others. Dominique’s aesthetic has since influenced a generation of photographers.

In this episode, she speaks about her extraordinary life, the impact of this original New Yorker series on her career, and the importance of documenting interiors.
