Default Sharing my good news

Been talking to a western wear shop or magazine ( Iknow that sounds dumb but they have both) well, they contracted me today to do all the shoots for thier catalogs and websites. They get to fly me to Cheyenne and are allowing me to choose my models and locations.
I am so excited! I've done photo shoots for magazines before but for the most part have been for landmarks and/or nature.
Was kinda cool as I gave them a list of what I will need and props I would like to have. I think I may explode!!
To me its like I hit the jackpot!!!
So for everyone who reads this, utilize every free source you can find to advertise. They found me by recommendations and on a couple of websites that I advertise on for free.

There are lots of them. Check out your city, a lot of times they offer free business listings . Switchboard.com is one, msn white pages or yellow pages.
anytime I seach for a business or phone number I look to see if I can place my own business on there

Well, congratulations! By the way, if you happen to need a short, slightly overweight, biker-type model, I just happen to be free. Have fun.
