I love shooting portraits and head shots! It's always fun to go out and meet someone you might not know so well, or in this case someone who you might already know and get to know them a little better. Ryan and I took an acting class together and also acted along side together in a couple B short films (I promise you will never see those films). When he asked me if I would shoot his head shots, I couldn't turn the opportunity down. We packed a couple shirts in a bag and off we went through the streets of Downtown Long Beach. I've known Ryan for quite sometime now and the more time that goes by, the more and more I think to myself, this is Ben Stiller Doppleganger, this guy shares the exact same characteristics as Ben Stiller and when the light hits his face just right, he looks exactly like Ben Stiller, but at the same time you can argue that Ben stiller shares the same characteristics as him, Ryan Milner. The other day Ryan dubbed Ben Stiller the Jewish Tom Cruise, I agreed with this comment and believed it to be a factual statement. This means if Ben Stiller is indeed the Jewish Tom Cruise then it could be completely and entirely possible that yes! Ryan Milner can indeed be the Jewish Tom Cruise as well. In this wacky world that we live in today boys and girls; I stand by the possibility that Ryan Milner is the Jewish Tom Cruise, and I'll give it to Ben Stiller he was the Jewish Tom Cruise first and Tom Cruise... well, we all know he's not Jewish. I'm sorry if your having a hard time understanding this, but if you have a friend who shares all the same characteristics as Ben Stiller you might understand what I'm talking about. Thanks Ryan for letting me shoot your head shots and don't forget to finish making your brother's family that dog house!
