'There is something almost cinematic about this shoot, with Joshua channeling some of the debonair and sophisticated qualities of movie stars from an earlier time.'
Last Autumn, I e-mailed one of my favorite photographers
Stephen Kahrs, about featuring his work for
FH's 10th. Stephen was in the middle of some extensive home remodeling, so I asked whether Stephen had any additional images of model J
oshua Gray. I had previously featured Stephen's shots of Joshua the summer before during my Last Gasp of Summer series. (

By the time I began working on piecing together the story, it was already Halloween and the anniversary posts were done. I decided then to tuck them away until after Christmas and connect them with a Quarternate post that I was planning for Stephen's work. After shoveling out from the recent nor'easter, and awaiting the next storm due tomorrow, I thought it the perfect time to return to Rockford and the additional shots Stephen had sent on of Joshua. I love Joshua's work, and given the new modeling shots he often posts on his
Instagram, many others clearly do as well.
