Early on during the session, the Beatles were visited by two members of the Japanese media, Koh Hasebe and Rumiko Hoshika. While the Beatles began rehearsing The Fool On The Hill, Koh took photographs and Rumiko recorded brief interviews with each member of the group.

Koh Hasebe was even able to get the Beatles to formally pose for a picture wearing matching checkered sweaters.
This unique picture was issued in Japan as the picture sleeve for the Hello Goodbye single.

In December 1961 Brian Epstien called Albert Marrion and asked him if he could take some pictures of a band he had recently become the manager of. Brian and The Beatles showed up at Marrion's studio in Wallesy on Sunday, December 17, 1961. Thirty photographs were taken, but in the end only sixteen exist today, and here they are....


The Beatles. The Albert Marrion Photos. Много...

Albert Marrion, a distinguished photographer, has an impressive list of credits, which include serving as the official Liverpool photographer during the Blitz of World War II. He became more famous, however, as the man who took the first official pictures of the Beatles.

Marrion recalls: "Midway during the month of December 1961, Brian Epstein called me and asked if I could take some photos of four boys he had started to manage. At first, I was reluctant to accept the task. We were primarily a portrait and wedding studio. In fact, the reason Epstein called me was I had been the photographer for his brother Clive's wedding.

"Brian had told me they were a scruffy-looking group in all-leather outfits, but quite harmless. I agreed and told Brian to have them meet me at my Wallasey studio the following Sunday, December 17.

"At first, I asked my partner, Herbert Hughes, to take the photo session, but he flatly refused, wanting nothing to do with the beat group.

"Sunday morning arrived and the four Beatles arrived at my studio. I remember those leather pants and jackets, the polo sweaters, and suede shoes to this day. Brian had spoken to them prior to the meeting so they were half serious in attitude. Every once in a while, John Lennon would stick his tongue out and make a wisecrack. John and Paul joked and laughed throughout most of the session. George Harrison was quiet and Pete Best didn't speak almost at all.

"It was pouring down rain and Lennon was beginning to irritate me. I, being bald at the forehead, Lennon frequently referred to me as 'Curly.'

"This photo session was done for Epstein as a friendly gesture against the wishes of my partner, Hughes. I took about thirty photographs of the Beatles but discarded all but sixteen negatives because many showed Lennon and McCartney acting up and spoiling the pose. No doubt, those negatives should have been kept, looking back.

Penny Lane.
"...On the corner is a banker with a motorcar,
The little children laugh at him behind his back..."

On the corner of Smithdown Place, next to the bank, stood the showroom of photographer Albert Marrion, who took the first official portraits of the Beatles -- chosen by Brian Epstein because he had done the pictures for Clive Epstein's wedding. The window displayed formal portraits, including one mounted artistically upon an easel.

Paul: 'I often used to stop in front of Albert Marrion's, who did high-class photography and wedding photos; we once had our picture taken by him, so there could have been a fourth verse about a photographer, but the song was finished before we needed any more characters. Penny Lane was a place with a lot of character and a lot of characters, good material for writing.'
