Behind The Scenes
Behind the scenes quickly became my favorite form of photography after being part of the short movie set of The Kingdom of LeRoy. The movie was produced by a team of actors and producers from Atlanta, Georgia and also featured a couple of actors from Knoxville, Tennessee; and Patton Productions with video. This scene was photographed at Downtown Knoxville’s Island Home Airport DKX. Below are just a few of my favorites from that day!
