Music Video Shoot: Night Two...

Happy Me

As you can see... I'm as happy as a peach. Don't ask me why peaches are happy, I've just heard that they are. I'd like to thank everyone who has helped in the making of the music video. I will name names at the end of this entry. Now to my favourite part... photos!

After seeing the photos for the first day, a friend of mine, Ez, complained that it was boring cuz there were no portraits. So Ez, here are a whole series of photographs inspired by your complaint!
