Shotguns and Mustaches
I have wanted to post these photos for SOOOOO long. I told the boys that I would wait until they ordered the prints and hung them in the loft before releasing them to the public. 20 or so prints and a big ol' canvas have all been framed and hung, so I can now post this epic portrait session.
I give you, SHOTGUNS AND MUSTACHES ;)
And a quick story about how I was first contacted to shoot this. I received an email that said they wanted portraits of 3 guys in the West Bottoms and they wanted a black & white wall print 50 inches across. I asked if they were in a band...no they weren't. I asked if they had an idea for the photos...mustaches, black turtlenecks, and coffee mugs. At this point, I thought I was going to get jumped in the West Bottoms and taken for all my camera gear. Turns out, I knew one of the guys and it all made sense [this very much so fit his personality]. They just wanted some crazy portraits for their new loft. At the last minute they changed from the original idea to Shotguns and Mustaches...a good choice in my opinion ;)
