ENGAGEMENTS WEDDINGS SENIOR PORTRAITS EVENTS

Notes

Oh hi there.

1.  People look at the weirdest things on my Flickr account.  Photos of my friends’ exes, photos of my dogs, photos of engagement parties.  I have photos of famous people, FAMOUS PEOPLE I SAY, and theatre and live music.  No one looks at those.  :(

2.  I am tired of being involved in engagement parties when I am subsequently not invited to the wedding.  I realized today that I have planned or done photography for three engagement parties in the last year and a half, and I was either not invited to the wedding, or I am not on the guest list for the upcoming wedding.  Weddings are expensive, I get it.  Receptions are GROSSLY overpriced, I also get it.  But these weren’t just random clients.  They were friends.  So from now on, I either get paid in cash or in invitation.  That’s my new rule.

3.  I’ve abandoned fiftybucksaweekatl.com for a while.  My finances are such that I’ll either spend $5 on food for a week, or $75 to stock up.  Until I can think of a better way to blog my spending (and also a more interesting way), it’s on hiatus.
