Oh will you look at that.
Two city engagement shoot scenarios at polar ends of my bucket list: a sidewalk with a chock-fuller than usual flow of pedestrians (apparently all of them just came out of The Theater at Ace Hotel where an afternoon matinee just concluded), and, just one block away, a totally empty street in Downtown Los Angeles. Three streets actually: W 9th, S Spring and S Main Street. But no POTUS this time - just a routine road re-blocking project from the local department of public works and the city government of Los Angeles.*
So those two instances above, plus the unfairly beautiful Southern California sunlight, plus Dom & Reg, delightfully animated an all, ever-comfortable with each other, totally nullifying the "we're not comfortable in front of the camera" disclaimer that they said earlier.
Ah. Favor. Another one of those "strength in weakness" moments. I was limping like Keyser Söze (don't ask why). And touchdown in LAX was less than 24 hours ago. Totally needed all the Help that I can get.
