Thanks everyone.
Originally, when he came to my studio and posed and I had envisioned a somewhat traditional portrait with a dark background. Turned out he and his wife were thinking more of a lighter airier portrait. I decided to go to his organization's headquarters in Washington and found there a wonderful courtyard with really nice soft light. That's where we did the posing for the portrait. I always try to keep an open mind. Sometimes, my sitters have really good ideas.

Steve
