A couple of weeks ago we were contracted by one of our commercial clients, Seattle Pacific University to shoot SPU student, Taylor Neal, for their upcoming story on him in ETC magazine. We drove down the street to meet a guy with a banjo and a 1970's Mercedes, who also enjoys cats and Lady Gaga. WIN!

Shooting him was such a treat. We love shooting interesting people. Taylor is a super dynamic and intriguing fellow. He's the kind of guy you want to go sit and grab coffee with and just listen to him talk. I don't think I would ever get bored during a discussion with Taylor. Taylor is a banjo player and a talented one at that. We had a blast with him so I thought I would share a few from our shoot with him last week. 

In other news, today is Saturday and the sun is shining, I feel like I have a million and one errands to run and Chris isn't feeling so great after our run in with Vegas :). I suppose lack of sleep and eating crappy food for a week can begin to take its toll. We will be returning Monday with our regularly scheduled programing after a week off from blogging ... stay tuned and Happy Saturday!

How could I miss this one! Way cool.. Any guy that can pick a open back is my cup of tea.. Was this guy "Bluegrasser" or more of a "Bella Fleck" type of guy? I am actually learning to play the banjo myself right now.. "No jokes please" I love this type of gig..

I am super crazy about the black and white shot. So much depth.
