As an art director, I’ve worked with a lot of photographers. Recently, I met a new one through LinkedIn. His name is Larry Huene and here’s the first job we did together.

Not only did Larry shoot this nostalgic still life, he retouched it, too.

Oh, and did I mention before he shot this in his Elmhurst studio, Huene (1) traveled to the client’s storage facility downtown, (2) explored their incredible collection of memorabilia, (3) hand-picked most of the items shown here and (4) added a few of his own to the final composition?

Talk about “going the extra mile” for your clients!

Now you know why I consider Larry Huene one of top three shooters I’ve ever worked with.
