Later in the day, I was supposed to meet  at Branch Brook Park. Too bad she was running late. Brian and Iman had come along with me to assist with the shoot. Since we had some time to kill, and since they are such a cute couple, we decided to do an impromptu portrait session [...]

Chris needed some headshots, on short notice. We got the call and headed over the next evening for a quick session at his house. He was auditioning for a part, and the casting people wanted a close up headshot as well as a full length body shot. The two shots above are the ones that [...]
