As the Village Voice ends it’s 62 year run as New York’s best alternative newspaper in a couple of weeks, I was given a last opportunity to contribute one more portrait session to the time capsule. Photo Editor Andrea Maurio asked me to meet author, editor, radio host and Bon Vivant Kurt Andersen in a park in Brooklyn…here’s how it went…
Setting up under the trees…
Kaz under ambient light, overcast…I sure hope that Sun pops out…
Add the 3′ Profoto RFI…
Insert subject, press the button…
Kurt was on a tight schedule, but for a quick second shot we just had to turn the camera 45 degrees South for this view under a row of trees…
Kale Friesen was also helping out that day…he got to be Macbeth Boy…
This was OK…
…but I told Kale to go grab one of the cafe chairs we saw on the other side of the park…
That did it.
Here’s how it looks in print…

The Voice has two weeks to go in it’s print life. Go out and pick up a copy while you still can.
