Default Great week!

Had to share some great news with you all. Hope you dont mind.
But wow, Thursday I was hired to do photos for 3 more phone book covers. Friday I had a phenomenal show at a gallery and was asked to work on a movie deal. By this I mean they want to use some of my photos as promo material for a remake of a book.
AND, I got to jump on the scoot, ride a short scoot of a hundred miles, had a few beers and came home!
Great weekend!

Thank you. I was quite amazed at the phone book cover deal. I did them last year and these people just dont use the same person twice in a row. Or ever for that matter. And, the best part is they doubled what they are paying me, plus I get a quarter page-color ad for free AND they put information about me on the inside cover

Maybe they just didn't find a decent photographer until now?

That's really awesome news, congrats.

Are these local type phone books? How on earth did you get into the phone book cover business? I bet it would make an interesting article.

Michelle, you KNOW how happy I am for you, my friend. I just need you to send me your autograph.

When you're rich and famous, don't forget me! LOL! I'm just tickled pink for you, you deserve it, with all your talent and hard work.
