I just finished talking to a couple into hiring me as their wedding photographer in september. Hopefully they buy my deal, that'll secure some pocket money that month.
It seems so easy when we were still schooling, the only worry is the grade we'll be getting back on each assignment - most of the time i don't bother. The next is working a little here and there for some pocket money. So that'll be it. Simple? probably not.
Seems like a whole different world has taken off. I hated doing the PR thing at parties and little dinners that you have to be cordial to everyone. I hated pretending i'm interested in somebody when i couldn't care 2 sheets about. But things are so damn different now. The pitching to the suntec city person, making a courtesy call to the CEO of suntec. The being invited to an authur's place for a party, and going to meet a whole lot of other people that'll in one way or another push me up the industry ladder. This, i can't be PR with. And sometimes i just think to myself, am i losing it?
That's when i closed myself up in my darkroom last night printing a lot of wedding pictures. I thought that I'm escaping into my world of black and white photography, but then again, i'm printing all this work for the clients i just met@!.. I'm working again!
Feel like travelling to somewhere for a little holiday soon. boy am i getting psychotic...
