It's been said that work is only work if you have something better to do. When I'm working, there is nothing else that I'd rather be doing. I love my job.
The main focus of my efforts have lately been focused on marketing. I'm pretty pleased with my efforts. One reason is because I've learned a lot about the subject (but have a lot more to learn). As a result I have an amazing portfolio and a plan for the upcoming year.
On the weekends, I've been in pursuit of Wild Art. Random images that just show people living their lives. It's a great challenge and a lot of fun. My previous posts show highlights of my urban safari's (the above image was shot during one such outing where I photographed Chuck E. Baby and the Allstars).
Between Friday and Sunday I've had a couple of distractions to my marketing efforts. I was hired to do a little corporate work as well as some magazine editorial work. I'm not sure which gig I enjoyed more.
The corporate work was simple executive headshots. It was so much fun. I love the challenges of making a conference room look like photo studio. The pictures were stunning. I would show you, but I don't like to show images before the client has a chance to display the images.
As I write this, I think the magazine work was my favorite. It was nice to go meet a couple of strangers, formulate a plan and then photograph them in a story like manner. Skip and his wife, Zenda are wonderful people with stories that made a visitor smile.
I'm probably rambling here, but it is my blog. The point is that I enjoy photographing people and my work is my play.
Yeah, what I do for a living involves photography, but it's all about people.
Peace.
