SAPCC # 37 – Symmetric (& why I am not ready to shoot a wedding by myself)

This is late because I was busy editing the mostly disappointing 1250 wedding pictures from last weekend.  The bride & groom only wanted the RAW files but I wanted to know what was there so I banned myself from the internet* for the week.  I learned a few things about shooting weddings:
1.  I am not [...]

SAPCC #34 – Metal

I took about 300 pictures at the Snowball 37 show Friday & I am pretty blah on almost all of them.  The stage was not completely dark, but the lights were set up in such a way that they were not illuminating things the way I would have liked.  As a result, I probably should [...]

The Monsters Are Coming!!!

Speaking of monsters, your child is not cute.  It is not at all adorable to let it scream in the middle of a restaurant.  It is not [...]

This is the way the world ends… not with a bang but a wimper…

Forgive me if I have misquoted that.  It’s been the only thing on my mind the last few weeks at work (with the minor exception of last Wednesday when I was still euphoric about the Obama win and optimistic that “change” would occur instantly).  Besides the fact that I am not even coming close to [...]

I Need A New Job

Resume
I need to create a new resume.  The only resume I own contains information about special skills like “Southern accent” and “baseball.”  It’s for background/extra work.  While I would not be opposed to doing more of that, I have realized said extra work will never lead to a starring role.  Ergo, I would rather not [...]
