CHICAGO—Not long after he happened to pass through a bustling office Friday morning, stock-photo model scout Andrew Sheeran revealed to colleagues that he had seen something very special in a man he had spotted wearing business attire and crossing his arms. “The second he sat down on the edge of that desk, folded his arms, and stared ahead intently, I knew this guy was a natural,” Sheeran said of the clean-cut, dark-haired 35-to-45-year-old man. “I can definitely picture him shaking hands with a smiling Asian woman or standing in front of a projector screen pointing to a pie chart. Who knows, maybe he could be on the cover of a workplace guidelines pamphlet some day. He has the potential, that’s for * sure.” Sheehan added that the last time he had come across such raw talent was back in 1997, when he first saw famed stock-photo model Hank Felder sit down at a desktop computer, grimace, and run a hand through his hair.

He has the typical $ 4.95 smile…
-
But he does cross his arms rather naturally doesn't he?
-
I prefer the photographer. Much more sexy IMHO. Models like that make me cringe. Am I the only one?
-
But will he blend?
Sorry, I just had to....
I can see what he is talking about although I'm about to throw up in my mouth just hearing about such concept shoots with fixed quote interracial business situations - blech.
If this "model" can really deliver then there is more potential than just "business man with headset smiling"...

"stock-photo model scout" I was not aware that such a job existed

Those are actually his legs, but he is so natural you just can't tell. ;D

Haha brilliant

More than that I noticed that's not some monopod or tripod, look at the camera mount! Holy Cow! Yes some peole don't understand the Onion yet and believe it's real.
Maybe I have an advantage because it was founded at UWM-Madison in 1988? (Wisconsin)
