Description
944 magazine wanted me to throw together a photo real quick for an article about a guy who was getting married, but ended up not doing so, and being stuck with the ring.
So I did a photo with a guy who didn't want anything to do with it anymore, and just wanted to destroy it to release all his anger. Anyhow it ended up being pretty funny looking with the whole get up the model wore haha.

ha, this is too cool. it looks like the two horses (or whatever they're called, carpenter's clamps) holding the ring are partial dice. like love is a gamble and his game of chanced was played with defunked, essentially useless pieces. these same pieces become the cuffs with which he's smashing the game.
