The concept behind this Shoot

December 2020


Darrian wanted to incorporate elements that represent his personality in this portrait photoshoot. I made sure he felt at ease with posing, especially because this was his first time doing a photoshoot of himself. I was honored to be the one photographing Darrian and his super cool samurai sword.
