Way back in 1985 Bob Guccione Jr. created SPIN Magazine.Β I was lucky to be there at the beginning and did some amazing shoots for the magazine.Β I remember going to the offices and hanging out with Bob, the art director and photo editor talking about ideas for shoots.Β I loved how raw and edgy the magazine was.Β Hereβs 10 of my favorite shoots I did for SPIN Magazine.
