The web has given me many opportunities for magazine and other commercial shoots that would take a dedicated effort and constant submittal to advertising agencies 15 or 20 years ago - they were the realm of the specialist. Fortunately assignments like this one I received from Cottage Life Magazine still pay well. It was an interesting shoot that involved a quirky subject. This man was famous in his own right for being the long time engraver of the Stanley Cup during all of the glory years of the Montreal Canadians and Boston Bruins. He has now settled into retirement and was commissioned to be the engraver of the Tin Man triathlon with it's trophy made from Tomato Juice tins.

The Magazine wanted a few different looks to pick from with one of the concepts they suggested being him holding the trophy over his head in celebration. Anne and I met on his farm while he was picking zuchinni.

This is the tear sheet:

To give you an idea of how I tackled the shoot - here is the selection that Cottage Life received to pick from. Their license with me allowed them to use one image for reproduction in the magazine. I am able to maintain ownership to all of my images. The reason the magazine picked me (according to the editor) was because if the natural relaxed feel to the images on my website. They requested that this mans lifestyle setting be included to give him a real earthy character. They were very pleased with the results and abundant selection.
