This was such a fun shoot for CEO Magazine, a portrait of Fed Muyshondt of BODYARMOR. I loved these natural light images I took of him, in the parking lot! There was a beautiful textured black wall that was totally in the shade. Fed was open to a few spots, and it shows in the diversity of images the editor ended up choosing.
First Cover of CEO Magazine!
CEO Magazine was one of the first magazines to have reached out to me when I started my career. I remember the first shoot was a quick portrait done in a hotel lobby in Manhattan. The CEO (as expected) I met was rushed for time. We chose a corner of the hotel bar to photograph him. There was just enough window light to allow for me to capture some moodiness, and just enough time for me to get the job done. I’d like to think the art directors have trusted me since that quick, quick shoot.
Fast forward 5-6 years, and I am photographing the cover of CEO Magazine! Thankful for this opportunity, and for meeting Micheal T. Pugh, CEO of Carver Federal Bank, an institution dedicated to inclusivity in their home base of Harlem. You can read the inspiring article here.
