Artist Portraits in Brooklyn Studio, Clinton Hill
Dan Bunn is an fine-art oil painting instructor at the Grand Central Atelier (where I have often modeled for students in the past), as such we have an established rapport and shared love of fine arts, so our shoot together was perhaps more casual than most. Dan was looking for some updated profile photos to use for submission to artistic publications and on various websites, and I was only too happy to help.
The majority of our photos were taken inside Bunn's private studio, but we also took some just for fun out on the rooftop towards the end of the shoot. Rather than just strict portraiture, I aimed to capture him both painting and posing with samples of his works to help incorporate more of his working environment into the shots.
Make sure you check out his beautiful work over at danbunnstudio.com and on Instagram.
