This is Clayton. Adorable, isn’t he? Yes, we at Nightspots think so as well.
Clayton approached me with the idea of being on the cover along with Aurora Sexton to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and I thought it was a great idea. Every picture I’ve ever taken of Aurora has come out beautifully and adding a cutie like Clayton here could only up the ante.
So Clayton set up the shoot at Restoration Salon on Clark St. in Andersonville, where he runs the hell out of the front desk. He even went so far as to enlist Restoration owner Tim Weber to join in on the photo shoot fun. A great time was had by all and we got some mighty good pictures.
Unfortunately, the photo which was far and away the best shot of the night only includes young Clayton’s forehead. Harsh editorial decisions had to be made and 80% of Clayton’s face did not make the cover.
So please, when you see Clayton, let him know how much you love him … and make sure to tell him his forehead looks amazing on the cover!
