Tyrese Gibson - 8.13.09 - Washington, DC

A well-rounded individual, Tyrese started out as a model and used his image to catapult him as a singer/rapper. His most famous songs to date have been "Lately" and, of course, "Sweet Lady." Soon after that, acting became a focus and he was in blockbuster hits such as "Four Brothers", "Fast and Furious", and the most recent "Transformers" movie franchise.

I had the privilege to meet and photograph Tyrese at an event sponsored by Bing.com. With the very limited amount of time I was able to photograph him, he was a fairly nice guy to have small talk with. Unfortunately his bodyguards were very protective but I did manage to get some photos despite the quick images.
