Hannah met Jamie in the summ er of 2010.   It was Hannah's 21 st birthday and she and her friends went to a club. They wanted   to dance, but they didn't like the music, so Hannah went to speak to the DJ. 'This music is awful,' she said. 'Could you play something else?' The DJ looked at her and said, 'Don't worry, I have the perfect song for you.' . Two minutes lat er he said, 'The next song is by Scouting For Girls. It's called Blue As Your Eyes and it's for a beautiful girl  who's dancing over there: Hannah knew that the song was for her.? When Hannah and herfriends left the club, the DJ was waiting for her at t he door. 'Hi, I'm Jamie,' he said to Hannah. 'Can I see you again?' So Hannah gave him her phone number. Next day Jamie phoned Hannah and invited her to dinner.

I wasn't really interested in politics-I wasn't a communist or an anarchist.But I loved the atmosphere. All the students were fighring for freedom, for revolution, and the French police were everywhere. On May the 15th I was with thousands of other young people.We were walking towards the Place de la Bastille. I was tired, so a friend picked me up and I sat on his shoulders. Another boy who was walking next to us was carrying a Vietnamese flag[it was the time of the Vietnam war] and he said to me Hey, could you carry the flag for me? and I said OK. There was so much happening that I didn't notice all the photographers. The next day the photo was on the cover of magazines all over the world.

A moment in history on 4th November I arrived in Chicago late in the evening. I wanted to photograph Barack Obama and his family in the Convention Center, but when I got there I discovered that I didn't have my press pass and I couldn't go inside.I walked around the park outside the center. Although it was November, it was a warm night. The atmosphere was wonderful. When I took  this photo everybody was looking at the TV screens waiting for the election results.Some people were quietly holding hands and smiling-others were tense and nervous. They felt that it was their moment.Suddenly I realized that this was a better place to be than inside. I was watching Obama's victory through the faces of all these people,African,Hispanic,Chinese,white. At about 11 o'clock the results were announced,and everybody went mad.People started laughing, shouting, and crying. But when Obama made his speech they all became quiet and emotional.There was only one place to be on the planet

But the night I invited her and Isabelle out on my birthday she chose the most expensive things on the menu! The worst thing was that although Isabelle and I paid for the apartmen
