Le PORTIER Cognac

shannon sharpe // los angeles, ca


For the release of the iconic Shannon Sharpe's cognac, Le PORTIER, I created images for the initial launch and a Superbowl giveaway campaign. As a three time Super Bowl champ, Pro Football Hall of Famer, and professional suit wearer, the goal was to highlight Shannon as the face of a luxury brand in both luxury and studio environments.
