Officer Gary Capuano "Caps" PPD-075 #05 (1/17/86)
I had another Photography first this summer when I licensed one of my images to be an album cover. The Spanish band Beautiful Senoritas found the above photo from my Pasadena Police Department Portfolio and really wanted to use it for the album cover of their new record “So Good!”. I had to hear their music and read the lyrics to “Call the Police” before considering the licensing. I liked their sound and there wasn’t anything negative in the lyrics, so I was good with it. I then called up “Caps” to make sure he was fine with the use, and he was. The band is emerging still, so the album will probably be a small project, but I have to admit the band members were so professional during the process. One of the best licensing experiences I have ever had. Hopefully the album takes off and does well because I love seeing good people have success. I just got a proof of the artwork and wanted to share it.
