This is my great friend Eric Coppersmith aka The Pizza Destroyer. I honestly don’t get to see him enough and I hope that changes this year. I think one of the greatest parts of his character is his passion for compassion. He also enjoys a good passion fruit while listening to Passion Pit. That’s a lot of passion! (too much?) He is the last person to place judgement, but he definitely wants you to be a better version of yourself. His unlimited support for others and level of content is really inspiring to me. I don’t think I have ever told him that. Now I think I should. Even if he reads this I am going to tell him.
If you are on twitter, give him a follow. He is one cool dude.
On a more technical note, I shot all of these photos with a 22″ beauty dish from above in a tiny room in my house. I have found photography to be more of a process of discovery more than elimination lately. Despite the limits I had in that room, I found some great opportunity. I’m starting to see my shots before I even put my lens to my face.
