NYCOMG | Sergio

As I was passing the green and red neon Carbone sign, I asked the doorman if he’d be willing to pose for me. I had him move to a spot underneath the sign. We did some shots that included both him and the sign, and some closeups of just him. “Will you send those to me?” He was enthusiastic. Adamant. Handed me his card. Sergio. Security/doorman. Whipped out his phone and showed me a photo of him and Sly Stallone. I sensed that NOT sending the pics would be bad juju. “Takes me about two weeks to process, so hang tight.” We shake hands, and I continue my journey uptown.
