My "other" job
« on: September 27, 2006, 08:37:17 PM »
Well...sort of...its a hobby but it pays well.  I'm either here at the booth answering questions and selling, or on the field shooting.  

This is our photography booth. We just received word that we'll be shooting the President's Cup Soccer Tournament on 2 week-ends in Nov and Dec. We're very excited, this is turning into more than just a paying-hobby!

We've also been asked to shoot the College football Try-outs in Puyallup at Big League Edge complex where college football scouts come and look at the local talent, this Spring 2007. Very exciting times!

My blonde business partner is on the right. She's a great gal with an artistic touch.








Camera Dork readying for the battle on the field!

Very nice Rip!

If you are not too proud, send me a few pics and I can edit them for you. You know in the same spirit that you edit other's pics here, except I ask first :)

Is that how you introduce your partner? The "Blonde" business partner? :)

Absolutely! I'll send you abotu 200 every monday morning if you don't mind. I need an editor as I don't have time really.  My goal is to shoot a shot without needing editting software, but that doesn't always happen.

Shoot me your email. Mine is soupnazi60@yahoo.com.  I'll put you to work. I hope you've got room for about 400 meg of pictures every monday morning. :)

Seriously Rip, if you post some more of your pics ( the good one's), I might just edit them for you, free of charge.


That's another thing I love about this community....... caring people who just want to lend a helping hand.

I'm sorry you feel that way. Its a good thing that folks that hire my services don't feel the same way! Imagine if all my customers had your high standards, why...I wouldn't be making money on this hobby! :rofl :rofl :rofl

Well said!

Since you agree that you don't have very high standards, maybe you shouldn't take it upon yourself to critique/ edit other people's photo's here, unless asked to do so.

In every case that you have "corrected" someone's photo here, you have:

1. not been asked to do so
2. not "corrected" the original photo.


You have a nice hobby. Have fun selling the stuff to the soccer moms.

Reading isn't one of your strong points, you sure you can read that CS2 manual okay? ;)
