I had a great time and would like to thank all the people who came to the London and Brighton events. It was great that some of the contributors to the book joined me at the events. Thanks Lisa Garner, The Brownhorse, The Big Bambooly, Ruby May Allcock and Ricardo Mendonça Ferreira for making it along and signing a few books with me. I would like to thank the two venues, Add The Colour in Brighton and Bar Sequence in London for helping me out. Big up lomoDxx for being my little PA for the events. Thanks to Barefoot wines and Lidl the super good deal on bottled Stella that helping getting everyone nicely smashed at the Brighton event!

Its that time of the mouth again.

The new Source Magazine is out (has been for a while) with my new trend spotting pictures. There’s a small change as Tuaca are now sponsoring street style. If you are picked as the featured person you get a free bottle of Tuaca! Keep an eye on my flickr stream and montage portrait set over the next few days as I will be uploading my new trend spotting pics.

Source was kind enough to mention that I am having a book launch this Thursday (July the 15th) for my new book 52 Photographic Projects. If they mentioned it it must be cool so you should all come! In other news according to Source readers the picture of Ruby is the best trend spotting pic so far, although Stevey of Ophelia Fancy gave her a run for her money this month (above left).

Published in American Photo Mag

July has been quite a good month for me in terms of being published. At the start of the mount I was in National Geographic and my 2nd book 52 Photographic Projects (UK title) / Photo Op (US title) comes out in the UK this mouth. Not only that but I also have a little something published in the July / August edition of American Photo Mag in an article about Phoot Camp 2009 which is a bit of coincidence as I just booked my flights to go to Phoot Camp 2010 in LA!

The Photo is of the lovely Jen Giese from Photo Jojo. It was taken at Phoot Camp 2009.

In case you are interested I am having two book Launches for my new book, one in Brighton this week on Thursday and one on Wednesday the 21st July in London. Everyone is welcome. Check this blog post for more details.
