He is a lovely man and a real legend Shane MacGowan and I were sitting in the Boogaloo in Highgate North London all evening and after all of th epunters had left we were still there chatting at about 2:30 in the morning. Shane looked his usual amazing self and I just had to stop him talkning and take a nice portrait. I must say it was with a very wide angle lens and it shows some rather nice distortion and I really like that.

I was asked to be one of the two official photographers for Nelson Mandela's 46664 Arctic Concert. He flew up from South Africa and met up with all of the performers in a small hotel. Me and the other official photographer (Dave Hogan) were not allowed to use any flash at all as he has very sensitive eyes, poor chap. He was charming.

Exclusive shoot at The Beverly Hills Hotel, Los Angeles, California Christina Aguilera 2006 Pete Doherty - This was a photo shoot that I arrange on the rooftop of the legendary Boogaloo in Highgate - London. I think this was on or around my birthday in March. It took almost all day to finally get Peter up onto the roof. He was rather pre-occupied with smoking various substances and what not. Anyway - the sun was starting to go down and we finally managed to get him to the roof and we finally got the shots we were looking for. Annie Lennox potrait shoot. This was taken in the Arctic. It was about midnight when we had about 15 minutes to do this shoot. But I wanted to shoot it in the dark. It was brilliant sunshine outside and I had to use loads of black bags to get rid of the daylight. Anyway - Annie is lovely to work with and looks great in the photo. Lily Allen - This was one of Lily's first photo shoots. It was taken in her hotel in London about an hour before her performance in West London. I think this was on the day her first album was released. Exclusive moment with Jerry Lee Lewis Shane MacGowan dressed as Che Guevara. Shane is a distant cousin of Che.

After taking thsi photo we spent an hour or so chatting and putting the world to rights, my daughter was with me and they seemed to talk for hours. He is a lovely and intersting chap. Formerly of The Beachboys. I met up with Brian and did an exclusive photo shoot a couple of hours before one of his legendary concerts at Hampton Court Palace in the UK Exclusive photo shoot with James Blunt I worked with Rory when he was recording Photo Finish, in fact I did some of the shots on the Album. We met up ion this occasion in Victoria in London at a rehearsal room and I shot them all rehearsing. Then we went out for a walk and did some shots. This is one of them. What a privilege it was to do a quick shoot with one of the founder of Fleetwood Mac. I was invited to this shoot which was in Soho in London's West End. We did this quick shoot then we wandered back into a private theatre for a screening of what was Peter's life story and named after one of his greatest songs, 'Man of The World' I stayed and watched it with Peter and a few selected invited guest. It was absolutely fascinating. Check it out, it is fantastic. Peter was clearly not in the best health. It is well documented in the film that Peter and the band were in San Francisco and Peter got involved with someone and some bad drugs and he hasn2019t been the same since. Whilst I was with him and taking the photos I asked him how he was, I meant generally, he just said "thanks for asking, I take each day as it comes and dont really know" What a lovely man he is. Led Zeppelin's lead guitarist and all round legend. Jimmy does look different here, a bit like farmer Joe. We were out in a field in sunny Suffolk, UK on a lovely English summer2019s day. Jimmy and I had our wives and some of our kids with us. It was a very nice afternoon watching cricket. I still don2019t understand that game!! Little Fish Exclusive location photo shoot with Oasis. Tokyo, Japan November 2005 Surrey, England UK I was at Rick's house in Surrey, England and he just took delivery of an old Rolls Royce. He used to go through cars like mad. he had some great ones though.. Exclusive Photo shoot with Ricky Wilson & Nick Hodgson of The Kaiser Chiefs backstage at Carling Academy BirminghamUK on 23nd October 2005 This was a portrait shoot that I did for the UK music paper called melody Maker. It was in June 1980 and we were on tour around the southern states in the US. I think we were in El Paso, Texas when we did this shoot. Anyway, the mad bastard always had guns around him and these were all loaded so I made it a very quick photo shoot and moved out to the tour bus. Mind you, when I went and met with Ted in his hotel room the next day when we had moved to New Mexico, he greeted me with a big 'ha Yeah, Danny boy come on in'. There he was sitting on his bed with about 4 hand guns. He did and still does love them. Obviously I photographed him there on his bed as well with all of the guns. That really was a fun tour. Alf Carretta, lead singer with The Zimmers. A band formed after my mate Tim Samuels created a BBC documentary about Senior Citizens in the UK. They became a world wide sensation. I then directed a music video of them recording the song originally by The Prodigy, called Firestarter. This photo was taken during one of the scenes that I was filming on that video shoot. I particularly liked this tunnel underneath London's West End (Mayfair). Alf who was about 92 when we shot this was great fun and a real sport. Well if your wondering why there is a photo of me on my website. Well, this one is different in a few ways. Firstly, it was 1978, I was slim. I had curly hair, all natural and my own. I was drinking mid flight on a tour in the USA on a real rock n roll Boeing Jet with beds armchairs etc. But most importantly, it was taken by Bob Dylan with my camera. We were somewhere halfway between Los Angeles and Augusta, Maine. Up and coming singer songwriter Anoushka Lucas. We took this portrait on location in central London one Sunday afternoon in one of those pretty little mews with cobble streets. Anoushka and her crew were a pleasure to work with. I have seen her perform a couple of times now and she is going to be big, she is very talented. Exclusive photo shoot with actress Maggie Grace Exclusive photo shoot with the New Seekers **EXCLUSIVE*** Actor, Gregg Sulkin on Location in London. UK May 3th 2009 Bob Geldof & The Boomtown Rats. This portrait was taken whilst we were on the road during world tour 1979-1980. I think Bob must have been thinking about plastic surgery at the time! I travelled with Sex Pistol, Glen Matlock and his side project, The Philistines to Istanbul. Whilst we were there we took quite a few portraits. This one I really like. We went into the indoor market, Kasbah and sat and had a coffee. Then took this shot. It was a mystical place and everywhere I looked there was a photo opportunity, so to speak. EXCLUSIVE PHOTO SHOOT with The Pussycat Dolls This was the moment whilst we were up 200 miles North of the Arctic Circle that Brian May of Queen was told by the Prime Minister2019s office in London that he is to receive a CBE. We were up in Tromso to as Nelson Mandela was holding a concert for his charity 46664 Arctic concert. We decided it was time for a photo. So, Dave Hogan and I photographed Brian with a cold and misty looking Arctic backdrop. It was all quite surreal, as there was no night at all when we were there, just sunshine all through the night. So much sunshine, that it was sunglasses weather. I have actually known Zak for many years now. I first met him when he was hanging around with my mate Keith Moon. That must have been 1977 approximately. They did get on rather well. I always found it amusing that Zak was so interested in Keiths drumming when Zak's dad was the drummer in the biggest band ever, The Beatles. Still, he must have had the best of both worlds. Anyway, this particular portrait was taken one Saturday afternoon at Zak's house out in the Surrey countryside. We spent a few hours chatting and taking photos. As we sat there in the sunshine, listening to Bob Dylans, brilliant Blonde on Blonde album, Zak asked me what was it like on the road with Bob Dylan! I answered him then asked him, What was it like growing up being the son of a Beatle? Which to me, was far more interesting. Anyway, Zak is a lovely guy and a pleasure to photograph.
