Tokyo Part 2

TyK 2010 Calendar Shoot

Shortly before I left for Tokyo I shot the men’s 2010 TyK Bike Calendar. The calendar, which is a spinoff from last year’s TyK Pinup Calendar, will generate proceeds to help out the Chicago Women’s Health Center. The shoot, presenting Chicago cycling guys as super hero’s, went really well and now that I’m back I’m [...]
