Freddie Mercury of Queen

I was hired by Jerki Hamalainen, a new friend from Finland, to shoot some photos of Queen, that he was interviewing. Jerki was the Editor in chief of the legendary monthly Suosikki. Queen was recording and we asked if the photos could show a bit of London. Freddy came out with a cup of tea. His now famous teeth were kind of aggressive’ and when I pointed my camera to him he was so sweet to cover them with his cup of tea. His powerful eyes tell the full story. A star is rising.
