I had a last minute opportunity to participate in a photo shoot in a wonderful old garage in downtown Sacramento with two great (and very handsome) guys and a beautiful woman. Two other photographers also grabbed the opportunity and we all met down at the garage, which was heavily graffiti laden. There were four huge doors opening into this garage which allowed wonderful, natural light in to the otherwise dark interior. The gentleman above, John, was covered in tattoos, which went quite well with the graffiti.
This is Jonathan and I’ve shot him before, a couple of years ago in Napa. The garage also provided a wonderful backdrop for him, with his blue eyes and well-built frame. Yes ladies, you can swoon and be envious over my good fortune being able to photograph these men.
John, above, is also a cage fighter. I don’t know too much about cage fighting except that I understand it can be brutal. However, John was one of the nicest men I have met in a very long time. He had never participated in a photo shoot before, but he was very natural and easy to work with.
We had a bit of fun with the whole fight scene. The light was so pretty behind them and the graffiti matched very well with the scene.
As it began to get a bit darker, we decided to go down to Old Town Sacramento to get a couple of sunset shots. It was a beautiful evening and the subject matter was equally beautiful.
This gal was a gymnast and we thought she looked great in evening clothes with the lights of the Tower Bridge behind her. She was a delight.
