Project Description

On the 2nd April 2016, I had the honour of shooting – the Surprise 50th Birthday Party of Barry ‘Baz’ Shailes, organised by his wife Josh. They had flown from their home in New York where Barry has a tattoo shop called, Clash City Tattoo; to Liverpool where both were born and raised. The theme of the party was rockabilly as Baz and his mates were all devoted rockers. There were live acts which included; Mike Badger, and a Frank Sinatra look-a-likey, who really looked and sounded incredibly like the original.
