Trade Ya
Good stuff. I'm out of the woods and on to Hawaii tomorrow. On my last day in Jersey Tom Brown finally gave me a few minutes to pose in my Streetstudio. I awoke at 5:50AM and set it up in the cold and dark where I found a small clearing in the woods. I knew that by 7:30 there'd be a bowl of soft western light to make my portrait. By 8 o'clock or so it was all done. I didn't get the exact shot I envisioned and I'd really like to do some more dramatic images of the man but given his reluctance to be photographed at all, I'll count my blessings. If he likes them I can only hope to explore those ideas.
As an interesting side note, I didn't get paid to make this portrait. Instead, I traded it for more tracker classes. I love bartering but don't do it as much as I should. As photographers, I think we are in a great position to work barter deals more than some professions.
Take pictures.

clay,
how do you do it man?! i feel like i can see his reluctance but more like y'know he's this simple man, not as in uneducated or unrefined, just free from distractions i guess refined in the pure sense of the word. anyway it's a great portrait thank you for sharing it with us.
