Overdrive

I don't actually know why/how I have found the time to write this. Things are fantastically hectic here at the moment - anyone that knows me well will know that I love to be busy doing what I enjoy, and right now I barely have time to stop and eat (And food is worth stopping for).
So Friday was Lenny's shoot - we got some great photos from that. What I like about what I do is that you get to meet some really interesting people. Occasionally - you find someone who has a real interesting story to tell. In this case Lenny spoke casually about he got into working security and totally changed my perception of bouncers/security guards etc. I wish I had known about his stories earlier and then we could have portrayed that in the photos- maybe another time. Yesterday (Saturday) was the wedding. It was the first wedding gig I have done so I was proper nervous throughout the main ceremony. The fact that you really need to get things right first everytime is a real challenge for photographers that set out to do more than just "get the photo" - I realise now theres so many "Boring" wedding photographers - it's as easy as it looks. But I really enjoyed it, and I want to say a massive thank you to Gemma, Paul and both their families for inviting me along and for treating me to a my chip shop dinner :D haha.
Today is Synopsis's turn in front of the camera. It's currently raining so I really should be working on some new plans. One of my studio lights has packed up so we might hit a few problems today. I'm also meant to be picking up my battery grip before 11am - I doubt that will happen now. Sorry this is fairly short and sweet I will do my best to keep this updated as best I can when I get spare moments.
