Well, another dreary weekend comes to a close. Man, I'd give my left ...scratch that thought. Nothing is worth the jewels...but I'm wishing for the sunshine nonetheless.
At least I got out for a walk with Masha in High Park. The buds are starting to appear on the trees, but it was pretty much a sea of "blah".
One week to Erin's wedding, and I'm still running around getting little items here and there for the eventualities that could ruin my photos. Too much crying (tissues), rain (umbrellas) and lack of balconies (small step ladder). Stuff that will all come in handy over the years to come, but leaves me running around for days on end. Oh, and of course, the emergency search for a 4GB flash card. My camera eats up 2GB cards in mere minutes (44 RAW+JPG).
Poor Masha will be flashing my portable hard drive every two minutes. Anyway, I'm looking forward to my first officially paid event under "GO Photography". Dumb name, yes, but I'm free to use it without registering it and given that I'm leaving Ontario in 4 months, it makes sense. Anyway, I'm a little nervous but thankfully Erin is about as far from the stereotype of the uptight bride as you can get so there isn't much pressure other than that which I put on myself. I think I have another shoot coming up in 3-4 weeks as well. I went down to Myth on the Danforth to watch the belly dancer that I am supposed to shoot in May. 
A guy couldn't ask for a more talented and beautiful subject, so if I can get a decent setting for the shoot and set up my strobes artfully, it should turn out really fantastic. And then I've been asked by an industry friend do some family portraits which I'll have to find a free day on a weekend to accomplish. Go figure, just as I'm getting ready to go back to school, the jobs start to come in :P.
