Stephen Fry | Blackfriars, London

What a great pleasure it always is to work with Stephen Fry.
The most British man (though not that British… ask him about it!) to be in front of our camera ever.
And I might add a great way of kicking off the new Maxam Photography news page…
Stephen was interviewed about his experiences with twitter, social media and technology in general.
We left a wet Devon at 0630 hours and arrived at the Mermaid Event and Conference Center at Puddle Dock just after 12noon. With Stephen scheduled on stage at 1600hrs we had plenty of time to spare, check out the area, setup lighting (not required after all that), and chat to staff.
at 1620hrs, a brief meeting backstage before an already late Stephen Fry was rushed into the hot chair and I took up my position and started shooting away capturing some fantastic expressions.

Some fantastic expressions there, Paul. My favourite is probably the first one.
I think Stephen Fry is brilliant. I’m sure if he’s half as good in person as he is on the box then you had a terrific time.
