Maia

I am reliably informed by their manager that Tom, Joe, Simon, and Will aka Maia, sci-fi folk band, have decided on a hat theme for their upcoming shoot. Unfortunately, when they arrive they don’t seem to be aware of their decision?! This means all my mad hat ideas get drop kicked into touch, and leaves me with a problem. I need to rustle up some new ideas fast, especially as the band turned up an hour late and need to leave early for a sound check! (Between my girlfriend, and all the bands I shoot I am seriously wondering why I bothered to put my clock back this winter. Everybody else seems to be working on GMT+1).

We take the mirror off the wall in the dining room so that we can shoot a white background. Then it all becomes apparent, no Mad Hatters, but we can shoot through the looking glass…

We follow this with a mint tea party in my dining room…

The boys then have to leave for their soundcheck in Kilburn, for which they are of course, already late…
