Kunle was actually one of my very first headshot clients a couple years ago, I don’t think I was even blogging back then. So, of course, we were psyched to work together on an in(SCP)iration session! In the words of his girlfriend, Ivy, who assisted on the shoot, Kunle is unassuming, warm, and thoughtful. I’d like to add, he is all-around genuine and generous, a great friend to have! He’s currently working and also teaches dance classes at night. If you’ve ever seen Kunle dance, it’s quite mesmerizing, he has immense talent and some original moves, his personality truly explodes! For this in(SCP)iration, given his dynamic ability to wow audiences, I chose an environment that is dynamic and colorful.
I’ve driven past this storefront several times and always wanted to photograph it
I thought it would be cool to wrap this garden hose around his neck. Until we realized it was frozen. It was really cold that day!
And THEN… I found this most amazing random assortment of a castaway couch and trash cans. Awesome!
Using a very urban background to complement his outfit
Look at that great smile!
And a special, I have to have a series of Kunle dancing. Click on the photo for a large version!
Annnd… a couple of extras. Here’s Ivy helping us out by watching over our stuff! What a trooper!
This is too cute!!! It happened really quickly, but I really like the spontaneity of the shot
