Heather Hazzan was recently commissioned by Rolling Stone to photograph Olympic Gold Medalist Alysa Liu. The resulting imagery offers a fresh, relaxed look at the figure skating star, leaning into a sense of playfulness and ease.
Known for her ability to create an approachable atmosphere on set, Heather’s portraits move away from traditional athletic tropes. Instead, they capture a more personal side of Alysa, blending quiet, candid moments with a lighthearted spirit.
The collaboration highlights Heather’s talent for finding the authentic character behind a public figure, resulting in a series that feels modern, grounded, and uniquely Alysa.
