So much of my work is currently embargoed that its tough to show anything recent that I’ve been commissioned to do. However, the personal work is often times the most rewarding and as such that was the case this weekend.
So after a busy week Saturday morning was setting up to be a very relaxing day as Liz and I decided to head out to a flea market on South Street and then meet up with our friend Chris to help him pick out some sneakers. (Liz is a sneaker expert) All of our plans got sidetracked however when Chris and I spotted a vendor selling replica armor. I convinced Chris that this one helmet would be worth $100 just to be seen riding around the city wearing it on his bicycle that afternoon. I’m a good salesman. Chris bought it. Riding around with it WAS worth $100. We quickly decided that we needed to do a quick portrait session with the helmet though so that the helmet could live on through the world of the internet.
