Description Model: Adam Collier
Camera Used: Nikon F55
Location: LFCC
Editing: Nothing edited except the contrast.

Notes: Captain Jack-- er... I mean Adam ::coughs:: was kind enough to allow me to do a project on him, his life and his family last year for a photographic project. Obviously what first attracted me to him as a potential subject for my project was the fact that he looked, talked, walked and acted like Captain Jack Sparrow. That and he seemed to be very photogenic. I wanted to know more about him beyond the Captain Jack Sparrow persona, so I emailed him, trying to explain that I wasn't some kind of stalker lunatic and that I simply had a project to accomplish and I personally thought that he would be the most interesting subject for it in my personal opinion.

Shockingly enough he agreed without a hint of hesitation, though I'm not sure he didn't regret it after meeting me XD Not that he'd actually say if did, he's way to nice for that! I had a good/fun time photographing him as my subject, be it as Captain Jack Sparrow or Adam himself, though I do have to admit... it was really hard to talk to him whilst dressed as Jack Sparrow. My mind just kept telling me that 'this is Jack Sparrow, not someone dressed as him, this is the real fictional DEAL' and I kept either going all shy or wigging out {mentally of course, on the outside I was as cool as a cucumber... I think XD}, but when someone is such a fantastic cosplayer they tend to have that affect on you XD The other Jack fans at the convention where this particular shoot was shot certainly seemed to be having the same problem that I did... though most got over it by either screaming his name or glomping him LOL

Overall Adam is a great person to work with and I can definitely see him going far with his Jack Sparrow and now Johnny Depp cosplays, oh and be sure to check out his YouTube & MySpace pages that I've listed below!

you're welcome.
I just cannot figure out what it is about your picture of Adam that I find...obsolutly harkening to my feelings of seeing Jack on screen for the first time. It was like I was taken back to that time and felt so bleeding excited about it - It's just...awesome.
