Last week, I applied for an American Express Open for Business credit card because I finally decided it was time to become a Professional Photographer. I want to build up my wedding, event, portrait and headshot business to the point where that replaces my full time income! I hope I can do it! It’s a very scary and exciting step!
So, my card came in on Friday, and the first thing I did was head to Samy’s Camera on Saturday morning! I got some new equipment, signed up for the PPA & WPPI associations, and started working on my websites. I only have splash pages up right now, but I’ll have more to see in the next few weeks! Oh, I also ordered business cards! Woohoo!
What else did I do this weekend?! Hmmm… John & I spent Friday night in. We watched TV and roamed around online. Saturday, I spent with Barry (Penny’s roommate to be) looking for apartments in Glendale. We found a few, and they applied for one that was really cool. It’s very close to John & I too! Then, Saturday night was Josef’s housewarming party, which was quite fun. Sunday was a focused photo day – web sites, business strategizing, and photo editing. Then, at night, John & I went to see Mac Duffy’s improv show (for charity). It was excellent fun!
Today, back at work… I leave on Thursday for Brandon & Christina’s wedding in FL. I can’t wait to shoot my first wedding with my wide-angle lens! I am so excited! 🙂
