Last wedding of the year and I’m chilling whilst the groom has a shower.

I’m just happy he didn’t want a bath.

Just down the road.

Bloody immigrants.
Walking over here on their land bridges.
They ruined England for the real English.

Like Red Deer or something. I dunno.

Farewell little yellow Skoda.

Bought as a commuter car, you ended up taking us the length and breadth of Britain every other weekend.

The cause of thousands of bruises on children’s arms.

A ladder for group shots.

You will be missed. (Because it’s bloody cold out there. I hate driving)

Our nutless rescue. 🥰

Ringo and Ziggy are coming back home today.

They went to stay with the in-laws on Tuesday whilst we shot Wednesday’s wedding. Then they got snowed in.

The house has felt empty without my boys.

How I intend to enter every gig from here on out.

Ziggy’s loving Return of the Living Dead.

Turns out they weren’t staring at a ghost.

Tasty tasty bubbles.

An awesome day photographing awesome people.

There’s definitely a lot about this job I’m going to miss.

Pablo Eggs-Go-Bao on Blandford Street in Newcastle was well worth a pit stop on the morning after shooting a fantastic wedding in the Toon.

Their breakfast bao and hash browns with hot sauce was the most satisfying thing I’ve scoffed in ages.

Seems like Lady Luck has shined on me. I have a job offer!

We’re pretty sure his name is Ziggy.

He’s lived in a shed for six months so he was scared of the TV. When we put some old live performances of David Bowie on, he came to watch, slow blinked, and settled down.

So we shall name him Ziggy!

Went to the rescue today.

Six months old and he’s nearly as big as Ringo already. Apparently his dad was a Maine Coon. 😳

Snapped by my wife in the Pride parade.

Good lord, I can’t wait until December and I can try growing some hair.
Praying to any gods that’ll listen for minoxidil to bring me a miracle.

Ronnie Rude is an exceptional support. 😂

Not a bad spot for a wedding.

Further thrills.

Precious item acquired.

Tonight we shall burn him.

I have just found the best eggs at Egton show.

RIP Merlin.

He brought me to the light when my life was darkest.

Goodbye my friend.

Taking the boy home after his operation.

He’s tripping balls. Which is ironic.

Just in case you don’t have it, is this of any interest to you?

I can drop it off at Abbie’s on our nightly walkies if you’d like it.

This dribbling idiot just cost us £100 we don’t have at the vets.

Antibiotics, anti inflammatory, anti puke jabs, and anti acid pills.

All because he can’t help licking other dogs piss. (I’m sure that’s where he got this tummy bug)

Guess who doesn’t want to go in the cat carrier.
