"Together with Bernd Ott, Besa created the book All The People, which they are currently raising money on Kickstarter to fund. Besa, a creative consultant, conducted interviews with all the people in the book. She approached Ott, who works mainly as a fashion photographer, to work with her on the project. They started in Amsterdam, where Besa lives, and London, where Ott lives. From there, they went to L.A., Berlin, and New York, since they both had connections there. Through portraits and interviews they celebrate gender identity's diversity and explore its complexities."
