Our wedding photographers are really awesome, and right now it's pretty much just the two of them, (they're married) and if they need to do a second wedding on the same date, they subcontract a guy they've been working with for about 10 years... who has been doing wedding photography for about 25 years and used to own his own studio.
Welllll... a few months ago, before I bought my SLR, I emailed Cathy and asked her what she suggested and if the D80 was a good camera. They shoot with Fuji SLRs which are very similar so she said it was a good camera to start with and I bought it.
About 3 weeks ago, we went in for our final consultation prior to the wedding and I was talking to them about my camera and how I wish I knew how to use it well and that it'd be really cool to do wedding photography. They mentioned hiring me as an intern to learn and then eventually when I am trained and have a good portfolio set up, hiring me as a 4th photographer and subcontracting me to shoot weddings, either alone or with the 3rd photographer (or with them)
I didn't really take it too seriously although the idea was pretty exciting, but I never thought they'd follow through with it... until she called me out of the blue today!!
She said she met with a client today, and her and Scott are already booked for this particular date. The Bride wants 2 photographers and since the 3rd guy is the only other guy, they want to get me in to start shooting weddings as an intern and start training right away, as soon as my wedding is over, and then hire me to shoot this girl's wedding! and others!
And the really cool thing? The first wedding that they want me to come along to in September is at Holy Hill, a gorrrrgeous church out here in Wisconsin at the top of a mountain, overlooking a lot of WI
I take that back... my first photo shoot with them is going to be on August 9th at the Zoo... I'm not exactly sure what it's for but they're getting me a ticket to go with!
of work until night time! yay. jeez. please go by fast.
Ik heb DUN haar en een HOOG voorhoofd. WAT bezielt een kapper om dan een perfect rechte en mooie frou UIT TE DUNNEN? ZIE ik eruit alsof ik gaten in mijn haar wil hebben waardoor de wereldbevolking mijn voorhoofd kan zien?
Waarom bestaan er geen NORMALE kappers, die geen knipfetish hebben bijvoorbeeld?
*grommelt de dag door*
the bad;
clean my room
clean the rest of the house
go through my wardrobes
do laundry
pack
run errands before i go on vacation
the good;
going on vacation!
seeing one of my best friends
seeing him
the weather
Beneden stofzuigen, boven stof afdoen, flipperen, was ophangen, auto wassen, broccoli halen.
Transformeer ik stiekem in mijn moeder?
(begrijp me niet verkeerd, ik sta er niet op om dit te doen. er zijn mensen die bereid zijn me het leven zuur te maken indien ik het niet doe. kan ik ze niet gewoon betalen om me met rust te laten?)....(oh en dat laatste vond M niet grappig =D ik wel)
Oh, en straks weer fitnessen. Vrijdag stond ik op de Powerplate langs Fancy Guy die me het twee dagen eerder had geleerd. Maar hij moest zijn aandacht bij de domme bimbo houden (die niet eens mooi genoeg was om een bimbo te zijn, maar wel het gepaste haartype en de gepaste haar- en huidskleur had) die tevens haar eerste les kreeg. Wat was ik toch een fantastische leerling. Al zeg ik het zelf. =)
Ik ben het leven hier zo beu. Niet op aarde. Gewoon hier. In dit huis. Met bepaalde mensen.
Ik wil hier weg. En ik moet minstens NOG een jaar hier wonen.
OMG.

Ok. Mijn karweien zijn zo'n uur geleden afgerond. Waarom verveel ik me dan al? Ik heb hier drie gloednieuwe afleveringen van House liggen, klaar om gekeken te worden, en zelfs dat zegt me niets! Sinds ik op mijn oude CD-RW wallpapers van MER/DER heb gevonden een kwartiertje geleden, wil ik alleen maar cheesy afleveringen van Grey's Anatomy zien. Liefst zo veel mogelijk met Justin. God, I love men in uniform.
Ohjee, zaterdag throwen Rob en ik een feestje. Wel, zijn ouders zijn toch op vakantie? Waarom dan geen zuipfestijn in de garage organiseren, temidden in de geur van wiet en sigaretten. Al was het maar om de mindblowing sex met Philip weg te spoelen. En roken.
Hmm. Roken.
So, to make a long story short, we got the diamonds reset into a band and when I tried it on, it looked HORRIBLE next to my ring. So we were going to get them channel set into another band which would look better, and when we were at the jewelers she told us it would be approx. 100 dollars more (around $1049 total) to reset MY diamonds into a new band. she brought out a band that had the same size diamonds in it, except more of them, and THAT band INCLUDING the diamonds was $999. So I was like, what the hell? let's just buy THIS band, KEEP my diamonds, and then we get a whole bunch more diamonds for LESS money, plus then it includes the lifetime diamond guarantee (if they fall out the replace them for free - my diamonds wouldn't be under that warranty)
so the salesperson checked with her manager, who said yes, we could have a full refund. we went in tonight to buy the band, and the assistant manager took care of us and i tried on about 25 different bands... a LOT of wraps. well, let's just say, as soon as I saw my ring in a wrap, I was smitten. I am a sucker for symmetry so I LOVED it!! Plus it's sooo gorgeous, it totally accentuates my main diamond.
it looks so much better in person, but here are some pics:
