This image of Lil Wayne was taken in the summer of 2006 at the legendary Magnolia Projects in New Orleans. I was there on assignment, shooting stills on the set of Juvenile and the Hot Boys’ video for “I Got That Fire.” I’ll never forget arriving and immediately pointing my camera in Wayne’s direction—his response was to flash me the middle finger. Classic Wayne. That moment set the tone for the day, and it led to some unforgettable images. There were so many incredible shots that came out of that shoot.
