My Business Adventure

Well, I'm off and running! Well, not really running. More like waiting. I decided a while back that I wanted to start taking headshots as a way to make money and be creative at the same time. So, I bought a great (but expensive) camera, shot all my friends for free, and charmed my talented sister into putting together a beautiful website for me. I have my business cards all printed up, my prices set affordably, and my hopes high. So far, nothing. Apparently people don't just show up at your door, money in hand ready to give it to you. So lesson learned: marketing. I have started putting ads up on craigslist and handing cards out whenever I can. Now I am complaining to you! (That's your cue to take pity and recommend me to a friend who needs headshots or just tell me how talented I am. Your choice.) I am sure things will happen at some point. Lets just keep our fingers crossed.

I've been busy.

This is a bit belated, but....
We had an 80s Party! IT was awaesome. We decorated the house with posters and all things 80s. We bought Bartles & James and Tab. Erin made a backdrop so we could take school dance pictures of everyone. And the costumes were great. I went for more of the Kelly Kapowski look while Erin was a bit more rockin' and Nikki was so Molly Ringwald. Everyone that came had a great time. We played an 80s trivia drinking game, which went over better than I expected. We set up a camera in my room so people could record a message or whatever. Let's just say the footage was interesting. And besides the red kool-aid stains on my carpet, the night was a total sucess. (Brian- sorry about your ticket.) but it will be awhile before we take on another party like that. It was a lot of work.
