Recently I did an editorial photo shoot for PUNCH magazine. They have a series profiling long-time bartenders and they hired me to photograph Chuck Sypult, barkeep at the famed Indianapolis restaurant, St. Elmo Steakhouse.
In this blog post I share some of my favorite shots. They only needed one photo, a horizontal image, for the final, but with how much I shoot, I sent them a lot more options.
If you want to see how I approached this entire shoot, check out the video below. I show some video of the scene and talk about my approach to finding a great photo. I also show ALL of my images (even the tests and not-so-great shots) to give a better sense of how I get my results.
Check out more of my favorite images below. To see the final story and my accompanying photo, head to the story on the PUNCH website.
