10 May A brass’n’roll day

A few days ago, I had a photoshoot with a pretty cool brass band, in a rental studio somewhere in Shibuya. The shot was supposed to end by 12:30, because they had a series of concerts afterwards. But there were 9 of them, and the set-up and make-up lasted longer than we all expected. So by the time they had to leave for the concert, we’d barely finished the individual portraits, and we had no group shot. So I followed them to Hikarie and during the brief break they had between concerts, I took them to a cool little spot I knew around there, with small alleys and some graffiti work and grabbed a few quick shots. We were all tired and hungry, but it was a lot of fun, all in all. I’d assume they had fun, too, especially with me lying on the ground a couple of times, trying not to get my legs into their group shot, climbing fences and trying not to get hit by cars. On the way back, I had just enough time to take this one last shot of them, on the 11th floor of Hikarie. More pictures coming soon.
