Photoshooting with the comedian Colin Kane

I got an e-mail about two weeks ago by a guy called Colin Kane. He found my blog, liked my photography and asked me to take photographs of him to use on his website and some promotional material.

Colin Kane is a young Standup-Comedian who works in a Law company on daytime to earn a living and as a Comedian in different New York City Clubs at night. I went to see one of his shows in a small club on Bleeker Street Saterday night. We met before the show started to take some pictures in the empty club on stage. Well, not really the kind of photography I usually do, it has too much of a studio feeling for me. But anyway. We'll meet again and take some photographs on the streets of New York. I guess that will feel better then although these shots will be posed... Good training to do that kind of thing. Who knows, one day I'll get an assignment for an advertisment shoot where everything will be staged as well. Too bad that a lot of photojournalists and documentary photographers have to do advertisement shootings to earn a living.

Update March 12th 2006: I just deleted one of the photos from this post due to a request of Mr. Kane. He thought that the removed image might not be helpful for his career... Since I am a nice guy I removed it.
