It's 2am: 25th Edition... Spam Sandwich

[mritchy]

I can't physically do weddings. It's why I'm going to do my best to create some stock imagery here and there and hope for some microstock sales. :(

OoooooOOOooooh. I've never done that before.

[wuzzittoya]

If I can make any amount of money with my equipment hubby will keep justifying buying me more. ;-)

[mritchy]

Where the hell did Monkey go?

[themadman]

I hate everything I see... hate it worse once I've captured it in my camera. :(

Go somewhere new to invigorate your creativity then :D

[wuzzittoya]

I have a chronic illness and end up with more sick than well days. It isn't fair for me to agree to any kind of scheduled deadline because I can't be sure I would meet it. I also usually can't do the kind of physical activity required for doing a wedding - that's an all day thing.

[DTBaan]

I hate everything I see... hate it worse once I've captured it in my camera. :(

well then, i'm glad i'm not in your captures :D

just hang around here and your mind will go 'wth!?' and forget all the troubles :P

so much hate.... going d800?

[wuzzittoya]

I'll have to get really creative about that - I don't travel well. :lol:

I was hoping to get a macro lens this month but hubby asked me to wait a few more... I'm hoping it's because he wants to just finish out my wish list in one fell swoop when the money we're expecting is available. I knew that macro would open up all sorts of new things to look at for sure...

[*sigh*]

Mostly. I booked 116 weddings last year, so there was a time I had an assistant. I also book out other photographers once I'm booked, so that accounts for about 28% of my sales and about 18% of my net income.Why so many weddings?

I know several wedding photographers / videographers and they would never consider booking even half that amount. You would never have sufficient time to edit pictures, it just seems like everything would be rushed...

[L.J.G.]

Hang on, I just need to get out of myself because I somehow managed to get up myself...........

[mritchy]

Why so many weddings?

Because I can, really. I have set up systems in place that allow me to get done everything that needs to get done.

you miss me already? :lol:

I think almost everybody here has said that exact phrase already :lol:

pretty much my thinking atm. if i'm able to make anysales, i will consider big upgrades :confused:

No - I'm sticking with my 7D until I can afford to add a 5D Mk III... then probably keeping the 7D a bit after that until they come up with something better on crop and I've saved enough to upgrade that body if I need to, depending on how stock requirements fluctuate. As more MP are available they raise their file sizes to match the newer bodies. :(

Thanks. Part of it is that I want my images to stay more - to really make people stop... see things differently, etc. I think part of it is that I've seen the same thing so much ... right now it's hard for me to see it in a different light. Not sure.

[monk3y]

For some it is. I'm fairly good when it comes to business and set up hedges to prevent major losses in a down economy. To be honest, I started my business in 2009 which was smack dab in the middle of it.

good for you :D

I am just doing this as a hobby... no plan to ever earn from it coz I am really really lazy at editing :lol: I am busy enough as it is spamming ;) :lol:

i miss your flashlight rubbing against my legs :(

[wuzzittoya]

I am really enjoying Michael Freeman's books. If anything they're at least teaching me critical measures of photography. I do take some pretty pictures. Artists always want to buy copies to paint, but they're ... just pretty pictures. Nothing heart-stopping in any of them.

[wuzzittoya]

Monkey! I'm so sorry, but I didn't say I miss you.

I miss Monkey, where did he go? ;-)

There. :-P

Actually, we got all but the "street musician" set done with him on Sunday. We're doing street musician stuff next Sunday. He's thrilled with what I've done, which is a little sweet... I know he doesn't know the first thing about photography. A lot of what he wanted or agreed to do with me ended up kind of looking like album covers. :)

G&N went right over my head! Completely avoid that section of the boards... :-P

All of these were dressed - black outfit, purple tie, hat. He really has a good look to him, though.

Wow. Business is good?

[*sigh*]

Wow... I'm filling out this online job application.

They require work history for 10+ years entered in, on top of the information that is on my resume, but they want Supervisor names, supervisor phone numbers, wages, etc for every job.

I don't remember most of that, oh and 10 years of work history puts me at the age of 13... I hate job applications like this....

[mritchy]

Wow, that's some stiff wood.

[monk3y]

hehe I think business is slow :lol: coz there are a lot of inventory stocks in there :lol: I still have one more warehouse full of hardware and electrical products.

seriously, its ok... stocks arrive at a rate of 1 or 2 x 20 footer van a week. My brother manufactures them and I market/distribute them :D

I let him use my Alvarez acoustic as a prop (he doesn't have acoustics at the moment and acoustic makes more sense for some of what we were doing). He loved my guitar and ended up jamming on it and teaching my son bass (and now my son owns his very own bass guitar - we traded in the Yamaha he lost interest in). Tried some high tone stuff in the church basement (only place I could find that I could put up the background holders!), etc., and some stuff on a real abandoned railroad (the bridge had been torn out - sadly I realized when I got there I should have visited earlier and hit it with a rake so the rails were more visible).

His big thing - his pictures are unique and show who he is and what is important to him. There aren't canned backdrops and the same poses all the other students had. I know he's wrong - but he's acting like I'm a genius... that part felt really good.

[mritchy]

Just don't spread it around.

I get requiring some of it, but some of it is unnecessary and a bit absurd. Especially since they only give you 48 hours to complete the application after submitting your resume or you are no longer considered for the position (and they don't tell you what's required in the application before hand).

A few other applications I've dealt with got into quite a few specifics as well, but this is the most ridiculous I've seen yet.

I think part of it is that people are getting a lot more "creative" in job applications and HR departments are tired of wading through what looks like good applicants on paper, only to discover later that things were exaggerated, etc., after the interview. People who can't get things turned around fast enough aren't motivated enough and an instant wash. Just another way to sort out the applicant pool. :(

Yup... they'll understand that. If you're a younger person (like you are) they know that many don't have the multiple years they are requesting. Fill it out as completely as possible. In cases where the place is now closed, list who your supervisor was, what the number was, and say after the company name "now closed" or something similar. They'll just shrug and move on nine times out of ten. If they're pulling your credit bureau reports they'll see your employment listed too. If it matches they definitely aren't going to be too worried about the fact you've listed a closed business.

So scary - it used to be three references (preferably former employers), no big job gaps and demonstrated ability were enough to make you considered a possible job candidate. The corporations know they own us... it's a new version of slavery...

I was the same way. My poor father! At least I was a straight-A student pulling this and not a B/C student who could do all A's if he tried (granted, I got grounded for more than a month for getting a C in 4th grade and that was all it took to make me at least keep it at A-level after that).

Wrong form of get. Obtener is literally 'to obtain' not the English slang form of get, loosely meaning 'to move from one location to another'. ;)

Steven can give you feedback on Zen. Smugmug has the option for visitors to buy prints. That's what you want, right? Does Zen have that? :confused:

yes you can sell prints off of your Zen site...but I don't think I have that option since I only got the unlimited package. you need to get the Premium or Premimum Business package to be able to sell.

I'm curious if you could walk on there.

[jdizzle]

Steven, I was reading the technical guide on the D800 and I really find the face detection interesting for back lit subjects.

[mritchy]

It's 2am here. Almost time for beddy bed. It's been so fun crawling in what feels like 20,000 leagues under the surface of POTN.

does your 1Ds have the spot metering on AF points feature? I mean when you choose an AF point it meters from there too?

I am not sure how the face detection works, its probably an improved version of the 3D AF tracking of the D3s/D700... or something like that.

[monk3y]

Hey Julian... I dunno if I believe it, there's some guy here selling a 5D MKIII already...he has some 122 positive feedback :lol:

Yup. My 1Ds III can do that. I'm surprised the 5D III doesn't have it bcoz I like to use spot meter most of the time.

Wow! :lol:

[monk3y]

Wow! :lol:

does it mean when you activate the face detection...it will automatically detect faces like those P&S?

[jdizzle]

Idk. Let me get the camera first. ;)

[Jericobot]

You made your avy proud. ;) :lol:

aint that the truth. that's how i look and feel now

Apparently the new 1Dx has this subject tracking. You can set it to track certain subjects, such as a bride on a dance floor, so your camera only tries to focus on the bride. Or a certain player in sports, etc. I don't think the 5D3 has this feature, but the 1Dx does.

[Jericobot]

the machines are learning

[themadman]

Anyways, night all.

[Jericobot]

Julian why'd you go back to that avatar?

peace out homeslice

yes Farlet, will see how that goes.

[jdizzle]

^Good morning Wuzzi.

[wuzzittoya]

Good morning, Julian. The rooster woke up early here... :-P

Then the dog and cats decided if I was up I might as well take care of them, too... Which was okay - hubby rolled over and had his elbow in my face anyhow. :-|

How is your morning going? Or is this still night for you?

[Jericobot]

Half past midnight here. Night yall
