    Beautiful images Casey! Love the lighting!

  2. Siobhan Moore says:

    What a poignant, beautiful photo. You should put together a book of portraits.

  3. Juaner says:

    He looks like Stan Lee, but more rockstar

  4. Julia says:

    He is such a nice man. Dear friend of my grandfathers.

    Sandra: This is window-lit, and shot in his small apartment in Exeter.
    Siobhan: I like your idea… I think I need some more portraits, though. I do plan to put together a portfolio of them through http://Blurb.com, which sells books, too.
    Juaner: I had this on display this weekend and someone said another famous person, but I can’t remember who. But Stan Lee for sure.
    Julia: He’s a great guy to talk to, and has a great story. He really wants to survive cancer.
