None of my settings have appeared. What the fuck? Just the word 'Link' with an underline. This now looks a little dodgey. I should refresh the page really. But can't be arsed really.
Anyway :)
I have one of my Urban/Natural shoots happening on Thursday with the lovely Rowan :). What a gem. Such short notice too! Can't wait.
I'm taking him to a place near where I live called 'Rough Park'...yes, it sounds dodgey as hell, aaaand it's in one of the dodgiest areas in Shropshire (I shall asume) but it is seriously beautiful. Just a shame it's surrounded by filth and chavs and kids who have kids and drugs and gangs and guns and fighting dogs. Totally safe.
Totally...Safe....
It helps that I'm from Northern Ireland really doesn't it LOL? The accent should be enough I'm sure :D.
But back to describing the set.
Basically. It's just a forest like walk, but with massive oven space, and some really old, fallen trees which will be where most of the photographs will be shot. As we don't have much time...I have ASDA coming LOL.
Speaking of ASDA...I am a fucking legend.
Pardon my language, but I really am.
I have managed to get one months worth of shopping...for £44! I know, you're going to think 'I spend that in a week! How the hell do you do that?'
Simple.
Starve.
:)
It's all I can do really, untill I actually start making money, and am able to get off the fucking dole. I hate the dole. I really do.
But still, survival is the key, and that's what I shall do!
Although next month I'm sure it's going to be a tough choice.
Do I eat, or pay the gas bill?
I know alot of people are facing that choice this year cause these big energy companies are charging a bloody fortune and filling their pockets. They should give it to us less fortunate, who are trying their damn hardest to survive on nothing and trying really hard to get into work that, well, simply doesn't exist to anyone who has no expierence, or been on the dole for over 6 months.
¬¬. Typically, I am both of those things.
6000 jobs applied for, all of which I know I can do, and getting turned down consistantly. Self employed doing something I LOVE and something I know needs to happen here in my area is what's going to help me. And that is what I will do. But enough about that!
The shoot with Steven will have to wait. And I'm STILL looking for female models. Clearly they're harder to find than an employer who's willing to employ me ¬¬.
I know I haven't blogged in DAYS but I've been busy!....Well, kind of. Digitally painting busy and having my partner over and helping her move into her new bedroom in her house :D. Furniture lifting is seriously interesting. Esp when you're asthmatic, have had to RUN LIKE FUCK to make it to a meeting on time cause the bust WOULDN'T TURN UP on either side of the meeting..like on the way there, and on the way back and I had to make sure I was in the bus station to make it for the bus that only comes ONCE AN HOUR! I would have been sooo annoyed if I was late for that. Luckily, the bus I needed was late, so after dying a little, I managed to get it, with some form of breathing going on...maybe not the healthiest breathing but I wasn't dead at least!
So I will end my rant there, and likely blog when ASDA comes, or after the shoot on Thursday!
Cheerieo everyone :)
Ps. My settings are still not showing. What the actual fuck?
