Photographer Mario Cacciottolo has a neat project going called 'Someone Once Told Me', summed up simply as "Black and white photographs, a new one every day, each person writes a message of something someone once told them". And he's done one of me. The message I used is actually something I read from Paul Arden, which I was pointed to by something Paul Isakson wrote on his blog ages ago.
Mario interviews each subject to get the backstory and each image is accompanied by some narrative which explains this. In mine, he's called me "rather suave and impeccably cool" which rather leads me to suspect he's got me confused with somebody else (especially as there's no mention whatsoever of a dodgy goatee). Anyway, don't let that put you off – it's a great project so go visit the site, take a look at the rather lovely video montage below and if you fancy being featured there's more about the origin of the idea and Mario's contact details here.
