Publications such as \u003ci\u003eVogue\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHarper's Bazaar\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eW\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eVanity Fair\u003c\/i\u003e kept Nicks moving seamlessly between celebrity, fashion and advertising assignments, his portfolio amassing a who's who of iconic women, including Cindy Crawford, Natalie Portman, Sofia Coppola, Patricia Arquette, Shalom Harlow and Cher, to name only a few.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNicks recently found a forgotten box buried deep in his archive with thousands of Polaroids from his 1990s photo sessions. These one-of-a-kind favorites saved from hundreds of shoots, both private and assigned, offer an intimate portrait into Nicks' life, friends and work. The immediacy of Polaroids combined with the natural fading of the physical print after decades in a shoebox makes each of these images singularly unique and tangibly genuine. Nicks was so smitten with this time capsule of images that he immediately shared them with his frequent collaborator, book designer and publisher Tom Adler, and this beautifully produced book was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDewey Nicks\u003c\/b\u003e (born 1961) studied photography at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, and has been working as a professional fashion and commercial photographer since 1986.

In 2000 Greybull Press published \u003ci\u003eKustom\u003c\/i\u003e, Nicks' first book of photographs, inspired by the very ideals and unique expression that originally attracted him to California.
