I am excited to announce that I had another paid photoshoot today. The girl, Kayla, that I took cap & gown photos for asked me on Tuesday & asked me if I would be willing to take some photos of her & her boyfriend. I, of course, said yes because I loved doing her cap & gown ones & money is a good motive as well.
We talked a little more & decided that today at 1 pm would be the best time for all of us. She got back to me the next day & ask if I would be willing to drive to a park in Wake Forest. It is only about 34 minutes away so I didn't mind it especially since she was willing to pay me extra because it was farther away.
Once we got there it was a little awkward at first. Since she is used to being behind the camera & her boyfriend carrying her stuff around but today my boyfriend & I were the ones doing it. We were there for a few minutes past 2 pm and we had taken a lot of photos. I have gone through them and gotten rid of the ones that are no good & now have a 100 left to go through & see if I want to edit them or not. I should be able to give her at least 20 - 30 photos back.
The best part of the day is when she told me that she really loved the other photos I did for her. She also told me that if she needed any more photos done she would more than likely come to me to get them done. This really meant a lot to me & I am hoping that if she loves these she will refer people to me when she is unavailable to take people's photos.
Today has been a good day. I will share these new pictures as soon as I can.

Yes, she is. Hers is also more of a hobby thing and to sometimes make some cash with it. She is actually starting school in the Fall to become a teacher.

I am hoping I do. Since she is going off to college and I am in my last year I might get three years worth of referrals from her or people coming to me while she is away at school.
