Ryan Z at a recent Studio 52 shoot

I worked with Ryan a couple times before and it has always been a pleasure. He is very willing to try stuff out and not too self-conscious about posing. I really hope he thinks about doing some more serious modeling because I think he has a look that a lot of clothing and sports companies could use. We’ll see if he moves forward and puts a book together.

So this was my first studio shoot in a while. I have been very immersed in the “business” part of the photography business and less of the “artistic” side. Ryan called me earlier in the week and asked if I wanted to shoot again. I said “sure” and really went at the shoot with a clear mind. Sometimes that is the best way, though I tend to be a planner ☺

The top image is my favorite and made it into my portfolio. The rest give you some idea of how productive the shoot was. And I haven’t finished going through all the images yet.
