>Frank Schaefer was  Methodist minister who was defrocked after it was discovered he’d performed a wedding for his gay son. The result deeply divided his congregation in Lebanon Pennsylvania. The story is now an original play which I just shot the poster for. Initially I’d had a crowd of demonstrators & counter-demonstraters in the background but it looked too staged and ultimately I opted for a single, dedicated protester and a beleaguered minister.

>A fight nearly broke out while I was shooting this when a number of passersby thought they’d stumbled onto a real protest and wanted to get in on the action. I think the Leica is partly to blame for that since I didn’t look like an impressive professional shoot, without the big camera.
