Today was my first photography job and it was awesome! I'm working the PMI confrence here in Winnipeg. So I was basically taking photos of all the presenters, and awards that were going on during the day. I had a mini crisis this morning though. I have rented a flash from Don's photo's, and I was doing some test shots and they were going well. After a while the flash stopped working, the screen on the back of the flash was going but the pilot light had turned off. I couldn't figre it out for the life of me as this was my first time using this flash.
So in a panic I called my Mom, I work her up since this wsa 7:45 in the morning but she didn't mind. So I switched the batteries in the flash to see if that did a diffence. After turning the flash back on the pilot light failed to turn on still :(
So I tried another test shot and HOLY FUCK it was bright. The whole photo was brighter then staring at the sun!
After taking four photos of pure whitness the flash settled down and started working like regular. I was so relived I felt that I should call the hospital and tell them to cancel the abulance lol. Panic attack over.
It was smooth sailing for the rest of the day. I got all of the shots I needed to get and I uploaded them to the Laptop and got them ready for the lunch time slideshow. I was a little upset that the projector made my photos look blue today but that was out of my control.
But after my day I have realized I cannot live without this flash. It's amazing! I'm totally going to rent one for New York. It makes my photos look so fabulous.
But I have to get ready for bed since I have to be up at 6:00am. The Keynote speaker of the morning is a Elvis Impersonator who is talking about Pyramids at a confrence for project managment. I'm not sure who this is going to pan out, but I think it will be Hystarical!
Details to come Tomorrow!
