DASHAUN WESLEY for OUT Magazine

Andrew Day photographs HBO’s ‘Legendary’ host Dashaun Wesley, known as the blueprint for Voguing today.

“I was introduced to Dashaun by a DJ that was playing one of his Vogue Balls back in 2012. I invited him into my studio for portraits, but schedule’s never lined up. By chance, I ran into him and a group of friends and stayed in touch but still didn’t get a chance to get together for another year! Patience is a virtue, I guess.

To me, it’s clear that Dashaun understands better than anyone else, who he is and what he’s doing. I respond strongly to people like Dashaun that are passionate, with a vision. I’m continually amazed at what he keeps coming up with next.”
