We first met when I was creating the first of my Dark Portrait sessions. Dramatic headshots with a particular twist.

For that session, he answered a casting call for a character driven shoot and asked if it was okay if he channeled Kevin from the movie Sin City. That image went on to win me a Silver award in the International Aperture Awards.

 This session, he was coming through town this summer and stopped by for a quick, entertainment style session. Like any good actor, he was working with a character in mind.

I don’t know about you but I think this one is a pretty dark roll!

As you may imagine, he is welcome back any time!
