Do or Die

Loaded into Flanagan's Harp and Fiddle during a soaking burst of rain.

CJ Crowe. Outtake from a shoot for Bethesda Magazine. Wet. Wild. Fun.

We both discovered that we lived in Baltimore, and had a space to shoot up there, if we had wanted it. That would have been nice, considering the ever-diligent and hardworking Parking Nazis of Bethesda.

I was setting up for my assignment, which called for portraits on white seamless, and noticed this nook in the back room.  Since CJ is a mystery writer (of sorts), I thought it made a good setting for a more intimate portrait. We made a quick shot, complete with many props (thoughtfully supplied by CJ) and some added refreshment we borrowed from Dan, our bartender.  ​

​CJ is the creator and the brains behind Do or Die Productions. Check 'em out sometime!
