What does a Witch on a Harley Davidson and a Not-so-Petis Pois have in common?



There have been some pretty strange going ons lately at Photogirl HQ. One day a witch on a Harley turns up at the studio and the next - 22 matresses and a pea the size of a car (or was that three mattresses, a petis pois and some clever post production?) Well however it happened, it certainly did happen and the fruits of all this labour will be seen for the first time Monday onwards. There's a lot of new exhibitions coming up so please check back over the next few days for a full list of where you can see my new work.

Thankyou to Gaynor, Duncan and all the lovely people at Calendar News!



I don't always blog the after-event but it just felt right to do so on this particular occasion. More as Thankyou to the people at Calendar who made my little TV appearance all the more fun.

To show my gratitude I thought I'd post a photograph I took of Calendar's presenters Gaynor and Duncan who, I have to say, were surprisingly chilled out before the show ;)

Here is a link to the tv clip itself.

Welcome to...The Circus of Horrors! Exclusive Backstage Portraits here...







A couple of weeks back (Mother's Day to be precise) I had the opportunity of spending a couple of hours in the company of The Circus of Horrors before their Fantastic show in Bridlington. While My Mum got herself a cuppa and waited for the show in a well lit area (well it was Mother's Day after all and it was certainly more inspiring than the usual box of chocolates!) I headed out along some dark, dark corridors into some dark, dark dressing rooms to find Dr Haze; the host and carnival master, and the rest of the inmates at St.Remy's Asylum for the Criminally Insane. Luckily for me I managed to escape a few hours later with an appropriately gruesome batch of photographs.

Despite being my third visit, this modern day Freakshow still amazed and entertained me with it's mixture of Music and intrigue, humour and gore - and god bless, even my Mum liked it.

I'll be putting my favourite images up on my website so keep your eyes peeled...your tongues forked and your limbs in places they really shouldn't go...

Calendar Interview is Postponed - Rescheduled for after USA shoot.



If you have already plumped the cushions, dimmed the lights and made a brew then please take note...

Due to the announcements of the axed programming, job losses and closing down of the Leeds TV Centre, tonight's interview on Calendar has been postponed - but I have been told that they will reschedule me as soon as I return from the USA :)

Right I'm off to finish packing. Don't all the girls skate around Venice Beach with only a bikini on? Right I've packed the skates... and my bikini.. (I'm sure it will feel *exactly* the same even if it is worn under jeans and a nice warm jumper..)

Now there is only one thing left to cram into my busy schedule and that's a live interview on Calendar news tomorrow night! Wish me luck and be sure to tune in at six o'clock ..

What do Baywatch and CSI have in common...?



...They are both filmed in LA and that is where I will be going on Thursday! Yes folks I have been commissioned to work on a film set in Downtown LA where I will be taking the film stills for a film short (which is set to become a major blockbuster film trilogy!)

I don't know much yet as it's all top secret but what I do know is that the director and producer are already responsible for some FANTASTIC films and that there are some well known household names taking the lead roles!

And the best of it? When my work is done - I'll be taking a few days off to visit venice beach et all. Hmm now were is that red swimsuit...?
