ABOUT The Stagg Party

"With its rampant female nudity and nonjudgmental "adult industry" theme, the voyeuristic Web hordes will love it. But the show's soft-touch intelligence and compelling characters give it depth."
- LA Times (read the full review) About The Stagg Party

The Stagg Party is a documentary web series about Ellen Stagg, a professional photographer in Brooklyn, New York, whose love of photography extends from commercial jobs to more personal erotic work. The series covers topics including how she got interested in photography, how she started shooting nudes, how her work affects her dating life and relationships, what her family thinks about it, how she balances the erotic work with her more mainstream jobs and clients and what it's like being a woman in a field that people usually associate with men.

Acclaimed director Joe Swanberg (known for his web series Young American Bodies and films such as Hannah Takes The Stairs, Nights and Weekends) follows Ellen working from home, shooting with friends in New York, working on a mainstream catalogue job and traveling to Los Angeles to shoot with models for her website. The series provides an intimate and well-rounded look at a modern woman who is working hard to maintain a successful career on her own terms.
