$79.50 an hour!

I just had a proofing session with a senior and her parents and they placed an order that makes my profit $79.50 an hour for working! Woohoo! Basically...off that ONE session I can pay my 2 weeks contribution to the bills. And I have another proofing session early next week too!!! I am loving senior picture time. :)

Awesome Wedding

Nate and I spend yesterday shooting an awesome wedding. And the best thing about it was that the bride was a great friend of mine in high school, so it was also like a mini reunion for me too. There were about 6 people that I haven't seen in AGES as well as my old english teacher. It was such a challenge because the ceremony was outside at 8:30. The lighting was tiki torches and SMALL candles. But the result of our efforts was amazing. I swear every wedding I do the pics just keep getting better and better.

The ceremony was at the residence of the bride and groom. It was tucked off of Liberty road in randallstown, totally not where you would expect a 150 year old vinyard complete with a concrete underground cellar what was transformed into a old italian / sicilian style winery filled to the bring with a display of wine bottles and lit with candles galore! Nate spend the better part of the afternoon sweating his butt off taking the best pics I have ever seen down there!

And today was the all day picnic reception. It was just wonderful. I am pooped. Going to bed now...

Note to self:

It's not a good idea to pick on the food that the banquet servers brought in from the 95 degree outside heat that had been sitting for 3 hours the night before a contracted wedding.

Ugh....I was up ALL night.

Sorry I have been lacking here. I have been working 3 jobs that seem to amount to not even close to enough money. All my available time has been used looking for a job or going on interviews.

I am starting to appreciate my $11.50h job at the country club a bit more now though.
