new job, more work more fun
Posted by admin | Filed under Uncategorized
So i havent updated this for a while, has alot to do with my workload at the moment.
About 6 weeks ago i applied for a job with a company who looks after the photography side of the Carsales.com.au Network and well you are now looking at one of three NSW Photographers, i had my first days training yesterday and whilst it may not be creative it looks to be alot of fun, to begin with I will be working 2 to 3 days a week travelling to various dealers around sydney taking photos of their new used vehicles for sale for carsales and dealer websites, so thats that.
WOW 3 months

So its been three months since my last post, whats been happening has been on a few peoples minds, lets see, Bathurst Motor Festival came and went, i wasnt that happy with the results, but alas sometimes you have off weekends, arc canberra was a few weeks ago now, that was a hell of alot of fun and great to be shooting for EMG and Fast Fours as well as The Western Australian, ohh I am officially shooting the AFL again this year with bigger plans, thats about it really, everything starts up again in a few weeks with Superlap, then the AFL then Easternats with my good friend jason kirk at http://www.motorsportfotos.com and again hopefully for EMG and a few of their flagship magazines, then its EVO STI which will be interesting as the event organisers dont seem to want coverage and I have atleast 4 different magazines interested, ohh well we will still go and just shoot from the sidelines, lets see them stop us 
and the list goes on.
I might post some of my favourites from the past 3 months in a few days.

So its 2009, wow what a start, only kidding, had a gig today which was actually fun, i might post some images a little later if i can be bothered 
So did anyone else notice the network jam at midnight on mobile phone networks? i sent a few sms messages just before and it took almost 30min for some to go through some didnt even make it, i guess quite a few people decided to send messages at the same time, i wonder why.
So 2009 what lies ahead? resolution, really resolution? cmon we all know its a silly idea, if you want something to happen or change to occur dont just wait till NYD to do it, do it now NOW!!!!.

Well hey its the trend these days isnt it? every man and his pet donkey blogs so why not jump on that horse.
So its the end of 2008, good year? somewhat, photography wise its been an education, its been rewarding, its been tough, its been every adjective under the sun (what? i remembered some english from school? Mrs Burnham you would be proud), all in all though it has been good and i am looking forward to 2009.
2009 hey? i remember when it was 2000 and i was hitting Mobile Home with my best friend Marty ohh the memories, ten years on and marty is still partying like its 1999, yeah cliche i know but it is right, and me? i guess i have found something to love and that i enjoy, what to do, as long as we are having fun thats all that i care about.
anyway enough of my first post already, enjoy the rest of 2008 and may 2009 be as boring as 2008
