Recently I held a very large casting at the studio.  This actor came to audition and right away I knew that I wanted to make a portrait of him that would have a retro look and feel about it.  It just so happens that he loves dogs and what is more classic than a boy and his dog?  A lot of times when I look at vintage photographs, one of the things that I think makes them good is that they are from a time that has past. The image doesn’t portray the everyday familiar.  With the proliferation of photography and snap shots that we look at everyday, sometimes it takes an image that is not set in current time to make us stop, look, and remember.
