Ultimate Lighting Champion

I just shot these portraits for a Muay Thai/MMA fighter named Eddie Lopes. Most people want portraits that make them look beautiful, so it's refreshing when someone just wants their photos to make them look badass. This guy had a wonderfully expressive face, and was able to go from looking like the nicest guy you'll ever meet (which he was) to looking like he's about to beat you to a pulp (which he can) in the blink of an eye.
