Caddy Portraits

Professional caddies are a breed unto themselves. The good ones are often more skillful golfers than the players whose bags they carry, their course knowledge can be encyclopedic, and they have some great stories.

One of my favorite caddies is a Scot named Willie Arnot whom I have known for many years. Willie is an amazing guy whose colorful life is permanently etched onto his rubber-featured face. He is one of my favorite portrait subjects, and he inspired this project.
