MOTHER FORGIVE ME

One Foot In The Grave - But Still Jumping!

About Me


First of all - let's get this straight! I'm not a band - I'm a Music & Fashion Photographer! I shoot people. For lots of money. Other times for fun, and sometimes to kill! I was trained by superstar photographer Mario Testino, and have assisted numerous other highclass, coke-hoovering photographer idiots until I thought - "fuck it! - I'll do it meself"! I have shot High Fashion for years and years and yawn, and done stories for Vogue Italia, Vogue UK, Vogue US, L'Uomo Vogue, Elle UK, Elle US, Harpers & Queen, He Magazine and on and on, but - frankly - to keep shooting skinny sticks in expensive rags is not just lame and boring - it's also idiotic!. I have now chosen to live under the name of "MOTHER FORGIVE ME", and to shoot REAL PEOPLE - cool people - just like yourself! My favourite fabric is DENIM, so I tend to shoot real people in denim! Each year I stage exhibition events around the world. Last year I did two in New York and one in Los Angeles. In 2007 I will stage four events in Scandinavia! Why - because Scandinavians are some of the coolest and most beuatiful people walking the face of this earth, and they love their denim. They not just love it - they have bloody sex in it! Each event will feature myself, my work and some of my ultra cool musical friends from around the world, so if you're into hip-shaking, carrot-wielding photography and serious FUTURE ROCK'N'ROLL - join me!
