Thank you, darlings...

So, off down to London for the Professional Photographer of the year presentation evening.
Here's me and mine, up in the editorial section.
Hic!

Eat, drink and be merry....

...for we are out of recession! Hurrah!!
Nought point one percent?..That's my favourite percent!!
Let's get back to our spendthrift ways and party like it's 2009 !!

Just released my new album!

Oooh, yummy! This is the new Jorgensen album I've added to my repertoire. 75 to 150 images in sexy thick black mounts..I'm never gonna want to let you brides have them back!

You've got to laugh !

Jeez, I'm so square...no wonder people can't understand me!
Couple of terms I've come across in the last couple of days...

"Visual writing tool".....Erm...a camera!
..and "Contemporary wall furniture"...a picture frame!

Anyone speak English?

Out of this World!

Phew....check this out!

Just shows how insignificant we are...and yet we still can't live together in peace !!!

Cheers!

Reading a book the other day on the Faeroe Islands.
(It was about the Islands..I wasn't on them!)
Apparently they have a word, Skeinkjari...meaning 'the man who goes among wedding guests, offering them drink' !
I'll drink to that!

Snap!

Just love one of my latest 'Glove' shots...
Yes, there is a glove in the shot, and no, I don't move anything (except my legs!) when I do these observations. My trainers are forevermore going to be known as my 'Lucozades!'
Check out more of my series 'On the one hand'...

Joy Division

Right...I've finally got round to making a 'movie' of my stills of Joy Division!
This year is the 30th anniversary of the death of Ian Curtis..30 bloody years!!..
so I've not exactly rushed into this project!

Check it out here...

Cold? Naaaah!

Tell ya what...when the going gets tough..the tough 'keep' going!
Ladies & Gentlemen, I give you...my postie's knees!
Praise where it's due...these dudes delivered in all but the worst of this weather!
Well done Royal Mail !

Melt my heart....

Enough already!
Yep, had enough of the white stuff now...roll on the thaw!

I'm sure the snow's affected my land-line, too...as no work-related phone calls seem to be able to get thru...!!

DeeGay radio...

My fave internet radio station of the mo....
Playing "the songs who gay people love"....Mwah to you all x

Oh...and don't forget I shoot civil ceremonies!!!

Feed the Birds...

Don't forget to feed the birdies in this bad weather...although this Sea Osprey in Egypt seemed to have no trouble getting his own grub! Shot this about 5.30 am on my Nikon Coolpix compact...Yes, I really did get this close!

The Best Advertising in the World...

We snappers do Wedding Fairs, buy expensive ads in magazines, do Google ads, print flyers...etc., etc...but Word of Mouth always plays a Big Hand in one's promotion.
So it is that I've just been invited to photograph the Wedding of a THIRD sister in a family...and that's the third time that's happened. Is that a "tripod" of Weddings, ha ha !

The Snow must go on...

Here's one for all you romantic souls planning a winter wedding for next year...it gets cold!
But, as they say...The Snow Must Go On...and congratulations to all my Winter Couples who braved the chill and got the deed done!
You can see some of them here....

Aw..lovely, innit !?

But just how bad is it getting? Don't panic, Mr Mainwaring but...
IT'S GOING TO AFFECT THE SOUTH !!!!

Right, we're off...

January 2nd..hangover gone..
and diving head first into the New Year.
Already taken my first new Wedding booking of 2010 and
splashed out over a grand (Splashed...see what I did there?)
on another new camera...gotta keep up with the technology, dude!
