caught the early train to manchester...muttering to myself whilst humping gear onboard that i was wrong to let frances meet me there.
spent 3 and a half hours at the 'betta bodies' gymn frustratingly trying to make something happen in the ricky hatton photo dept.
i HATE not being able to do my job properly: if people impede my making great photos, i get quite upset aka. angry.
the american camera crew from HBO were pleasant enough (despite their american enthusiasm and macho posturing: "woo-yeah etc...") but their mere presence was inconvenient to say the least.
and there were some magazine/management communication problems.
not ricky's fault: he's busy getting ready for a huge fight.
(which btw i hope he wins)
a very not well set up shoot was (not) had: 3.5hrs of frustrated long distance candid attempts...after which i managed to squeeze in 3 rolls 'to camera'.
this is not the sort of photographer i am.
this is not what i do for a living.
thankfully.
mr.perou has not had a good day at the office.
over...
