Portrait of Lt. Governor Joe Garcia



Several weeks ago I went to film the Lt. Governor Joe Garcia for an event he couldn't attend because he was going to be out of town.

As it turns out, the Lt. Governor is really cool, I told him that I probably had met him before in another event and he said that he doubt it because he would never forget to meet me because of my name, he really likes the main actress in the movie Spanglish, and there's a whole scene where they talk about how to pronounce "Flor" in it. I laughed and told him that that's how I get people to pronounce my name, I asked them if they've seen the movie Spanglish and then I tell them, "well, remember that whole scene? You get to practice now!

In case you are wondering, here's the link, it's actually really funny, just jump to minute 3:34 for it.

Anyway, I digress, when the interview was over, I asked him if I could have two minutes before his next appointment to do a portrait, and he said yes! In the next 20 seconds, I went on to find the simplest background in his office and snapped about 20 frames.


Until next time.
