Sky Magazine commissioned Dan to shoot actors Orla Brady and Richard Armitage for their May cover. The two are stars of the new Sky One drama Strike Back. The only problem was Orla lives in LA and Richard lives in London. Dan shot Orla on the Thursday in LA and flew back to shoot Richard in London the next day. For this shoot we used London retouching house Happy Finish to grade and comp the two images together……

What a neat process! I laughed when I saw the look on Richard’s model’s face! If that were me, I’d actually look EXCITED! Haha. They just take it for granted, standing next to that gorgeous man…

Wow – Inspiring! and I love the notes on the individual frames..
This project shows how things can be done (if done right) despite unique challenges! I know it might be an overstatement of the obvious but this work puts emphasis on that thought.
Thanks for sharing. Kudos for an exemplar portfolio as well!
Godspeed,
