This weekend’s photo booth for Vashon Island Pet Protectors Fur Ball Auction

Give them a workshop on entrepreneurship, business strategy & landing clients, the things people who sign their/our checks have been studying all along and which might actually help pay the rent.

If i see one more workshop on creativity aimed at a market full of people facing the loss of their jobs to AI-creativity-emulation-bots ima lose my shit. Creativity is not and almost never has been the problem its just the easiest thing to give a workshop on.

I still spend exactly the same amount of time waiting for photoshop as I did in 2005. Is it doing more impressive things now? I dunno, sometimes.

I ADDED YOU TO A 7-PERSON TEXT CHAT ABOUT IT PREPARE FOR THE NOTIFICATION FIRE HOSE ITS LIKE CALIGULA IN HERE

Can you email everyone and find a meeting time? Can you come meet me at my place and drop it in my lap? Can you retroactively make it vegan?

‘Ooh send me the link to a thing I can easily google! Send me a photo taken with each of those 85mm lenses at f2.8! Send me
a summary in 4k60 and ooh too big for email any chance you can upload to hosting?’

Theres been a rash of people asking for substantial amounts of work like it’s nothing & I’m here to remind you to protect your time and not let people give you unpaid side quests. Your friends will understand and your clients need to pay.

PSA it's 2025 and we all sometimes BS ourselves to get through the day but if you're walking around early morning and there's something wet in your crocs that works its way between your toes don't tell yourself it's a piece of wet grass clippings you know goddamn well it's a slug.

Lotta good stuff out there today.

If, however you’re having both photographers and models paying you hundreds per hour and neither are vetted for experience but you tell both to expect great portfolio pieces, that’s not community building, that’s a rent party.

And telling themselves what they’re doing is mentorship, community building etc.. If you’re putting together a content day thats a great community building thing to do.

There are entirely too many photographers responding to a difficult market by turning their practice into an MLM that fundamentally preys on other photographers

Miss me harder with the idea of switching to darktable/gimp/etc over this

Miss me with the excuses, I write code and work with devs in my day job, this is an entirely fixable problem created by them and out of all the things you try and get software to do, syncing strings of text to the cloud is one of the easier ones.

Dramatic re-enactment of Adobe's legions of developers explaining why they can't make keywords sync between LR and LRC even though we pay them hideous amounts for a subscription that includes 'new features and updates'

Boy-doir is a genre that feels extremely underrepresented and hooboy and I enjoying the chance to participate. #boudoir #boylesque
