Images of me with some of the famous people I have met & taken photos of

[edit]

I have added a bunch of photos with me and famous people. This is to prove to some Wikipedia editors that I really do meet famous people and take their photos. I hope this will keep them from deleting my photos because they think they were copied, screen shots or stolen.
