On weds had a friend use the studio and had to tell the naked models off for undressing in front of the main door once or twice but the day went good and was a pleasure to see Eddie at work again.. today i have been messing around with textures on photoshop did try them a view months ago but thought thy wasnt my style but had another go and think i am coming around to them :))

Great day

Had a good day in the studio and yet again customers are like buses you wait all day for one and two turn up at once, but didnt mind i met a very funny Canadian comedian Called Liam Leroux and his girlfriend. makes a change really, he was also a photographer for a newspaper for many years in oldham off all places. We had a good chat about Film vs Digital, and he liked my work which is always good and very pleased a pro gave it the thumbs up :)) then Laura came my second Appointment of the day had a real fun few hours sorting out a portfolio for her and got some great photos just hope she's pleased with them.

A day in Afflecks is never dull Saw Nakki Nickie dancing all day which was funny in its self in a good way off course :)

Over slept

Not over slept in years but did do today should off been at the studio to meet my assistant. but i had a night shift and didn't get home till 7.30ish and i didn't hear my alarm which is strange because its quite load or the 5 missed calls :0

well the last few days has almost been all rock and roll :)) went to fleetwood near Blackpool and never drinking half pints of Tequila with a bit of lemonade again its not good for you the next day when you have a night shift to do too felt like i was sweating the stuff most of the day, well not drinking for a week or two now ;) .. well nothing much exciting besides that happened this week besides waiting in the studio and two customers came at the same time when you don't feel like shooting from a hangover, sods law they came in but did my thing and fitted them both in so all's good...

really looking forward to fri i have a big pinup shoot planned :))) more on that after it happens i think

monday madness 17th

well today was a busy day went to see the new studio but could not get the antique lights system to work so have to wait for an electrician to fix them but all looks good nice size have a few good ideas for removable wall backdrops ;).

Sat in my Afflecks studio today i saw a lady looking at my photos of Paris. She turned and asked do i do Photos so i said yes, well she then asked for 1 of NY i giggled and straight faced said No and thought about asking for the plane fare until i heard her comment how she didn't think Blackpool tower was that big. noticed she was looking at the Eiffel Tower in Paris and asked if she had never been to Blackpool then she replied oh yes i live there.. glad she walked away before i made an other comment

well i got my chair for a big shoot i have planned for Friday so thought i would try it out hence their bizarre looking snaps :)))))

Paris 09




Would just like to say I did not have a gun put to my head in anyway shape or form by my 1 stalker I mean follower :) and she is not a Bully in any way but a very Nice 2o something...

Now thats all cleared up she wont kill me the next time I see them I hope?????? :O


Ok first post after being told off by my 1 follower while holding a gun to my head (yep she did) well i'm not a really blog type of person and not sure what to write in these things so you will have to forgive me if it gets boring, the life of a Photographer is not always a Rock and roller all the time but must admit is some of the time :).. well its a start not long i know but a start will add more photos than write i bet and maybe a few of the mad storys along the way.

like the other day I got a Phone call asking if i Blow things up. good job it was over the phone dont think they would of liked my smirk. i asked in what way and they replied you now make things bigger than they are. at this point i knew what they was going on about but thought i would act dumd not really hard for me been doing it for 36 years, well call went on and i said no i dont go to tescos.... see boring really might aswell go to another blog and read their's, I hear there is a good one called inside the mind of a 2o something www.lisamarieblog.com
