Sex Worker At Home Portraits?

I have 400 sheets of Tri-X minus the 20 I shot today. I have been thinking of doing a style of large format portrait that I have never done before. Portraits done of sex workers in their homes with available light. Am not even sure how feasible this is, maybe there is not enough light, sharpness, depth of field but I think I want to try it. This idea was suggested to me by a documentary photographer in New Orleans, when I had a show down there. I will need to find a subject or subjects who would pose for me, I will need to pay for the session. It could be possible. These portraits would give a deeper insight into their lives. Show the back story of who these people are, humanize them more.
