Hello, My name is Danny Fontaine. I'm pretty busy most of the time with one project or another in the constant hope that eventually one of them will pay off.
Music's my big thing but I also make films, take photos of bands and models, and teach photoshop - so send me a message if you'd like me to teach you.
All the links are to the right there and I'm always interested to know what people think.
I do commissions for films/music videos and photo shoots, and do a special rate for unsigned MySpace bands, so feel free to get in touch.
You can email me at
info at Danny Fontaine dot co dot uk.
Feel free to just stop by and say Wuddup mo' fo'.
yeah.
