This young man is a long-time friend of my youngest son. He came over for a visit the other day and I asked him if I could photograph him. He was game and he happened to bring his yo-yo with him. I thought it would make a fun prop and so we shot a couple of quick photos using my studio lights and white backdrop. The yo-yo moves very fast, so I asked him to show me a few tricks, and he was happy to oblige.
Because I was using a white backdrop, I was able to cut him out of the pic and paste him here on a New York rooftop. And he didn’t even notice. I even had time to run around behind him a do a little artistic spray painting.
And here he is with a little more serious look.
Handsome and fun young man.
