Hey all!
The Saint shoot is a tribute to the cult ITC TV show starring Roger Moore from the 1960's. It has been in the planning for 2 months and i was lucky enough to have the actual car that Roger drove in the show. The car is a Volvo P1800, reg No: 71 DXC aka ST1.
Everything was set for the shoot, however, one week before the shoot happened i had a major epileptic seizure at the top of the stairs, i fell from the top to the bottom during my seizure. I ended up in hospital for 2 days. I had broken a few of my bones between my shoulder blades and neck, so serious this was, there was even talk of neurosurgery. They said i must have a saint looking over me as i was close to ending up permanently in a wheelchair.
I never thought i would be able to fulfil this shoot, everybody suggested that i cancelled it. However, i pride myself in being a professional and the show must go on under any circumstance, no matter how much pain i was in during the shoot.
I did the job and i am exceptionally happy with the results :)
I did over do it on the day, thus i had a relapse for 2 days, so now i am just going to be taking it easy for a while, if i ever know what this means lol.
I hope you love the photos as much as i do. If you haven't seen any of the original The Saint shows, i highly recommend them! They are still available to buy from Amazon as box sets.
Here is a link to the dedicated page on my website - The Saint.
Enjoy,
