Headshots and Coffee

 

Rob van Meeenen emailed me yesterday with an ASAP request for headshots.  I obliged because I had about 2 hours – so I went to work.  I polished, I primped, I “crushed the blacks” and I finished all 7 of the additional images he requested.  Now, Rob is done, I hope.  Except, I forgot to make B&W copies – I am a retard.  Curses! I actually just realized it now, as I was writing this…  And guess what – It will take about a half hour to do them, because you have to tweak a little…  But now I am at work, squandering that time away on this blog.  Oh well.  I also have to finish Danny Maslany’s headshots too.

 

 

I enjoy the act of taking the photos, and I enjoy the act of tweaking them (taking out zits and the such) with the person in the room because it’s fun to get a sense of their personality.  And, I enjoy giving them a set of digital files that I don’t have to be responsible for after that point.  I like to help people that way – it’s easy and fun.  I should talk to a couple of people here in town and try to set up shop here.  I could use the extra cash.

 

 

Speaking of extra cash, I’ve decided that the timer on my coffee machine is well worth making coffee at home before work instead of buying it at Starbucks – so hopefully I’ll save some sweet cash.  Though I do need to buy better coffee than Safeway – it’s pretty bad.  I bet Starbucks’ take home is good, but expensive.

 

 

Also, the American version of THE OFFICE is great.  I watched it in between sweeping and cleaning the mirror in the bathroom.  I think I’ll start not downloading them tonight – because downloading shows is wrong.  I can’t wait to see it all.
