Throw Back for Thursday (“Cigar Break” with Reese Maddox)

A little throwback for Thursday. I have been so busy that today I needed to just sit back and look at some images from a few years ago. I come across “Cigar Break” and I remember how much fun the shoot was. It was also hot and humid that day but a lot of fun none the less. The contrast of the beautiful model with that old wooden Indian just makes this photo for me. I love it.

I love this photo so much for many reasons. First of all it has the ever amazing Reese Maddox smoking a cigar, second it was a totally impromptu shot. While walking down the street in Bethlehem, PA with Reese we happened upon this Cigar shop and how could I not take a shot of her taking a “Cigar Break.” It was actually pretty funny as we were setting up the shot, people walking by looking at her and then looking at me and realizing they were in front of my tripod. Just one of those magic days.
