The Him competition is still active! Scroll down below for details!

These are some of the shots found on the Iron Maiden ‘the Trooper’ DVD out now!

The gig was in Iceland earlier this year. Bruce flew a Boeing 757 (flight 666) to Reykjavik full of fans, played a sell-out show then flew us back again. I was knackered by the time we touched down back in London. I am just pleased Bruce managed to stay awake!

This was the view I had at 6am as we came in to land at Gatwick.

As promised here are a few shots of Ville that have never been seen before! They were taken at ‘Agent Provocateur’ the sex shop in SoHo. I can’t believe we got away with the shots in the window!

The competition to win a print is still open for entries. See the previous entry below!

This one was published in Metal Hammer ages ago!

I have to admit the eyes above are not mine but Ville’s from Him. I have just had printed a most beautiful portrait of Ville which I will be selling on eBay. This has been plucked from the archives and has never been published or seen before! The last ‘first’ print I sold of Ville went for £225. I have had 50 printed and the first 25 I am selling on eBay at a fixed price of £29.99. The 1st sold gets #1, the 2nd #2 etc etc. ALTERNATIVELY ENTER THE COMPETITION BELOW AND YOU CAN WIN ONE!

Well its not all rock! Anyone remember ‘Imelda Davies’ from Grange Hill? She is an old friend of mine who is making a come back of sorts. Fleur was the bad girl of BBC1 and was very famous back in the day. Up to now, she has turned her back on TV and has only recently decided to give it another go. She asked me to take some head shots for her new agent. I think I upset her because I kept asking for her ‘Eastenders’ look and then pushed it even further by asking for her in the ‘Bill’ face! I was only kidding! She is very lovely and I am sure she will be very successful.

Here is some more Bullet for my Valentine shots! The one in the field was taken somewhere in Lincoln in-between recording their album. I was up a ladder holding my camera, a light, a fag (probably) and trying not to sneeze! I changed the yellow Rape seed to red using Photoshop.

I really hope this band make it massive. They were so patient for the Hammer shoot which took about 5 hours in the studio. 3 hours spent shooting the band for a desert ‘concept’ which never materialised? Apparently it went a little over the top in post production and got canned at the last minute. I’ll post it up here when I get to see it!
