photographer/filmmaker looking to collaborate on photo project (LOS ANGELES)

hello! I am a photographer/filmmaker in grad school working on a photo series called "i'm happy, I promise".
I would love to connect with anyone who has a story or experience of something they have done in their lives to "put on" or play into the idea of perceived happiness.
What do you do in your life to show people you are happy? We could have a conversation, we could have a photoshoot, I mainly just want to connect and see where the idea takes us! ** must be comfortable with the idea of being photographed, if that's where our meeting takes us! **
