Behind the scenes

Story time! Many people ask me whether I photoshopped the incredible flights The Witness of Time makes in the photos taken on the beach in Panama back in 2012... to answer these questions, here is the truth revealed... The brave model and gymnast is my friend Ken Devo... he is a bright entrepreneur living in Cancun who has gymnastics as sport. In the pictures below you can see the sequence of how he dominates the "Christ-jump" technique (with no protection foams below!)... The first time Ken jumped and landed I thought I needed to call an ambulance, but instead, he stood up right away, shook off the sand on his suit and asked "how was it??". When shooting in locations many times I need to improvise and take advantage of the model energy and spirit...with Ken was definitively a great experience shooting, we had lots of fun and the results, I think are awesome! Thoughts? Comments?
