Back on the set of Love/Hate. Working on a project for series 5.

Sad to hear that Hungarian film director Miklós Jancsó died on the 31st January. He made some truly great films including 'My Way Home', 'The Round Up' and 'The Red and the White'. Belá Tarr called him "the greatest Hungarian film director of all time". 

Much as I like Bailey's work I was disappointed by this show. Starts well with the giant Michael Caine blow-up overlooking the reception area but there are too many dodgy choices - particularly in the 'Icons' section. Shame too - given the quality of the b/w prints throughout the show, all made by Bailey - that the 'Box of Pin Ups' images are framed in series of six. Would have been good to see these individually and to have included Francis Wyndham's commentaries from the original box. Not sure why Bailey chose to put a Damien Hirst picture on the cover of the catalogue. I recommend buying the pocket book 'Bailey Exposed' instead. It's only £9.99 and includes many great quotes from Bailey - and others - and there's a beautiful picture of Bailey, high up in the Naga hills (on the border of India and Burma), photographing one of the Naga people. Bailey is clutching his Rolleiflex in his left hand and with his right hand is gesturing to his subject. What this picture shows is how much Bailey loves what he does. 

Two gorgeous girls - Isabella and Grace - arrived yesterday evening!

Very sad to hear that Terry Millet has passed away. It was always a great pleasure to work with him and he was always full of inspiration. Will miss you Terry.

New D magazine story published today. Shot with Annie Morton in Los Angeles and featuring Lucky Blue and Colin Mulligan. It was inspired by the first series of 'American Horror Story' with Jessica Lange.

Another spread - featuring Lucky Blue with Annie - from the new D story.

And another spread from the new D story! This one featuring Annie and Colin Mulligan.

Just finished writing a piece about my friend Simon Reilly for the Spring edition of Irish Arts Review. Simon is now based in Los Angeles but above is a picture of him from 1994/95 in his old Henrietta street studio, Dublin. The piece will be published on March 7th. Meantime, check out some of Simon's watercolours here
