Photographer Robert Whitman remembers Prince's first professional photoshoot

A few months ago after Prince's death, Time magazine published this article that tells the story of why Prince decided to call Minnesota home despite his widespread fame. While people of Prince's status tend to move to big cities like LA or NYC, he decided to stay in his hometown of Minneapolis where his career first blossomed.

Robert Whitman, a local photographer, recounts the story of how he came to photograph Prince during his early years, way before he became a household name.
