Who is the Barefoot Musician?

Why barefoot?

Any barefoot musician would do really!  Smooth jazz is synonymous with the New Orleans music scene, Connor is already a regular & trusted model, and he can really play the sax!  Oh you meant to ask why barefoot?  Feet are a thing of beauty, bare feet symbolize youth & freedom.  These are regular themes in Christopher’s work, and specifically in his “Focus on Feet” photography series.
