The shot I almost missed.

Early one morning in DC. I had a little time before a shoot but I almost got towed. I would have missed my shoot. The price of personal work.

I really dislike shooting on big rolls of white paper.I usually do "seemless" shoots using natural light it's much nicer than strobes and you get this nice glow you could never get from fake light. It makes me feel a bit like a 19th century photographer in a north light studio and that's almost worth it. To my surprise when these postcards came across my desk a shoot that I wanted to forget about ended with a great result. Sometimes all you need an AD and life is good.
