29 Minutes with Brian Culbertson
Photographing the artists of Intiman Theatre
Dancer Brian Culbertson is one of the sweetest and endearing people I’ve met. Our paths have crossed many times at theatre events, and I finally got him to come over to the studio for a glass of champagne mini-lifestyle session to capture this chapter of his life while interning for Intiman Theatre.
The entire session was done on a simple white background with natural light. All I wanted to focus on were his gorgeous crystal eyes, beautiful freckles and fiery hair.
Go see Brian’s work at Intiman!
