I am spending this weekend as the Event Photographer at Adventure Con in Knoxville. AdventureCon is an enormous collectors show featuring characters from the big screen, comic book illustrators, wrestlers and more.I've had the pleasure of meeting so many nice people today:
Dave Prowse, the actor who played Darth Vader in Star Wars IV, V and VI.
Richard Kiel, the 7-foot, 2-inch actor who played "Jaws" in several James Bond movies and dozens of other big screen actors.
Peter Mayhew , who played Chewbacca in Star Wars
Martin Klebba, who played Marty in Pirates of the Caribbean
I also got to meet some very talented comic book artists.
I can't wait until tomorrow. I will get to meet William Mapother, who plays Ethan in Lost! :-D
I'll try and post pictures after this weekend.
You can read more about the convention in this article that was in the Knoxville News Sentinel today. BTW, wee that handsome looking young man in the article? (No, I'm not talking about Mr. Potato Head!) That is my brother, Adam. He has worked so hard to put this convention together, and I am so proud of him. It seems that all his hard work is paying off.
Here are so more articles about the convention:
