Today I discovered Shadowbox is not Vista friendly. Ah Vista, the anti-social operating system. The PC Newswire says it all.
In light of this, I redesigned the Elwood Construction site (now officially live at buildelwood.com) using flash instead of the Shadowbox slideshows.

Different look, but I like it. Also sent off a print order for fliers and business cards this evening (in between making spaghetti and meatballs).

Along with business cards for Elwood Construction, I also ordered some new fliers and cards for @designs. I ran out at the Muse Project on Sunday and need to stock up.

The Project was good this month, much more streamline and easy. The venue offered a greater variety of areas to shoot in (even though it was smaller then I expected), and the light was great. I maxed out all my cards – I had to go back through and delete files off so I’d have space for the next model. I have a lot of photos to edit.

Brad and Alan did the math and figured that, on average, I shot 10 photos a minute. Hmmmm. Yes.

But (I won’t say it’s necessary) it helps to catch the spark, especially when working with models who are excellent at what they do. I want to catch not only the model as The Model, but the model as his or her self. To see that expressive spark of personality. I will tell a story with how I edit the photos and the locations I choose. But while I’m shooting, I prefer to subject to pitch in with stories of his/her own.
