In their intimate portraits, the photographer @lissa_rivera_ and her partner, BJ Lillis, are building their own fantasy world. 3 years ago, BJ, who describes himself as genderqueer, told @lissa_rivera_ that he had spent most of his college years dressing in women’s clothing. But in the professional world, he’d lost his confidence. To help him regain it, she offered to take his photograph. “When we took the first photo,” BJ said, “I felt like I’d never had my photo taken before.” Since then, the 2 — who’ve since become a couple — have made dozens of images for a project called “Beautiful Boy.” The couple began to travel with the project in mind, finding more locations in Virginia, California and Italy, among other places. The images have grown larger in scale, taking in whole rooms and connecting the poses to the setting. In “Motel, Virginia II,” @lissa_rivera_ wanted to call up the intrigue of a Hitchcock film, with the gathered tension in BJ’s posture and his gaze — anxious or expectant? — out of the window. In surrendering his likeness to his partner, BJ found a path toward liberation. “I’m being myself in every one of these photos,” he said. An exhibition also called “Beautiful Boy,” opens today at @clampartnyc.
