RJ SHAUGHNESSY – VICE UK

RJ was asked by VICE UK to photograph someone that is important to him.
He decided to take this amazing photo of Jake Trott.

As told by RJ:
“Jake Trott is known for his continuous attempts to quit smoking cigarettes, as well as the time an art director exploded a water balloon on his crotch at a fancy dress dinner. He once also got hit in the balls during a tomato fight in Spain.  Jake is my digital tech, my second set of eyes, my support system, my fire starter, guidance counselor and friend. I owe him a lot.”
