David Harbour shoot for Signature LA Magazine

I recently had the pleasure of photographing actor David Harbour for the premiere issue of Signature LA Magazine.

Here are some of the highlights of his upcoming film projects

In the new James Bond film, Quantum Of Solace, he plays a crazy scotch drinking FBI agent, who plans to assassinate James Bond

He also stars alongside Kate Winslet and Leonardo Dicaprio in the December release of Revolutionary Road, where he plays the controversial character “Shep Campbell”

He completed filming alongside Russell Crowe in the motion picture State Of Play, where he brings the mysterious character “Red Six” to life

My goal with this portrait was to capture the underlying menace that he often exhibits with the characters he portrays.
