My boy Michael Copon and I went downtown to throw down a little publicity shoot. Michael is an all around cool and talented guy. He's starring in the new Scorpion King movie that hits the theaters this summer. It's a prequel to the previous Scorpion King and he plays the Rock's character at age 19.
It was good to shoot something a little harder than I normally shoot.
Here's the story: http://www.nickonken.com/Stories/MichaelCopon/

Love this set, as usual.....you do not use strobes much eh? and if so, they are real low key??
I am sure you have been asked this a shitton of times, so ignore if needed.
Keep up the good work.

Isn't the scorpion king a prequel to the mummy? So I guess this will be prequel of the prequel. Anyway, awesome shoot Nick.
