Magazine Cover Portrait of Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy

The other job I shot in Atlanta in January was a portrait of Chick-fil-A president and COO Dan Cathy (son of founder Truett Cathy) and Mark Miller, CfA's VP for Training and Development. I originally wanted to do something involving cow costumes, but the magazine shot that down. I then came up with the idea of photoshopping them into a photo of a giant chicken. There's one of those right around the corner from me. That one got shot down as well. They ended up using a shot of the men inside one of their mock restaurants that they use for training. So here is the idea that I liked, and will use in my portfolio, and the image that the magazine used on their cover...
