Mid-March, just days before the world went to absolute shit, Moya McAllister and Ed Levine at Psychology Today had given my dream assignment, shooting street portraits around the city for a few days to illustrate a story about the benefits of face to face interactions.

Colin met me for a very quick shoot at a midtown studio, he was just back from rowing all the way to Antarctica, yeah you read that right, so I was expecting him his skin to be burnt by the cold and saltwater but to my surprise he looked like he just exited the spa. 

We exchanged a few moisturizing tips and shot this few options.
