I gotta be honest with y’all, until today I didn’t know who the Globetrotters were, you may be thinking “Where is this guy from?”, well yeah, I am not obligated to know everything, one thing I know for sure, the more I cover Entertainment assignments the more I know about shows, actors, actresses and tv shows.

Years ago I remember being in a red carpet and I overheard one of the ‘veterans’ photographers say “If you are in this business you should know every single person that walks the carpet”, I might agree that I need to know most of the talent that walk the carpet but not every single one of them, more on that later, I do not want to make a long post arguing about it.

Today the assignment was very artistic, I went to the Pan Pacific Recreation Complex to capture images of the Globetrotters Herb Lang and Paul Sturgess, they were giving the final touch to a painted created by Pop Surrealist Artist Daniel Maltzman, it was very interesting how the three of them combined their ‘painting techniques’.

You can see the rest of the images at the agency, which by the way are available for license:
