This image was a shot for the Financial Post Business. The magazine was doing their annual CEO rankings and John Feltheimer, the CEO of Lions Gate Films was on the list. I photographed John in the back yard of his Los Angeles home, a very nice home as I’m sure you can imagine. John had just about the tiniest dog I’d ever seen. I wanted to photograph him holding the dog in one had. Unfortunately his “people” didn’t think it would be a good idea because they didn’t like the image of him with such a “less than manly” dog. Next week will be a busy week for me. I’m shooting a campaign for Country Wide. I’ll be spending a couple days at their Dallas offices and then a few more in Los Angeles.

For the Financial Post cover shoot we needed a Harley. A San Francisco dealer (Golden Gate Harley Davidson) provided the bike for us. Along with the bike the sent this guy to make suer everything was fine, and from the looks of him, he’s not someone you want to mess with. He was great… and for him, he was having a blast. He thought helping out on the shoot was one of the coolest thing he’d ever done. While setting up for the shoot I took a few shots of him… you couldn’t cast someone better for the part of “Biker guy.”

I recently shot a cover image for the Canadian magazine Financial Post Business. The shoot went well and everyone involved was happy with the images. Hair and makeup was done by Diane Catorc and styling was done by Patricia LaCava. This shot was an outake, my favorite from the shoot, but of course not the images chosen by the magazine.
