Whenever there’s an uncomfortable situation that I can put myself in, I try my best to put myself there.  It builds strength and adaptability. Usually I would not do a shoot like this because it’s just too grudgy low key art with almost no production budget at all.  I mean, I only used one Profoto…

Decided to change my strap out to a British racing green leather strap.  I’m pleasantly surprised by how well the color matches with a darker themed watch.  I’m pairing it with the only piece of Versace clothing I have.  I bought this sweater 12 years ago when Versace was going through some financial trouble and…

Another recent portfolio/comp card shoot I did for a local talent agency.
