Busy Making Other Plans

Personal musings of Marianne Taylor

I guess it’s friday again…

28th January 2005

I think I have some sort of compulsion to blog on fridays. Even if I have nothing to say I just need to get a new entry up on friday. Erm. So this is it then.

I’m currently trying to put together a new (physical) portfolio. So many things to think about. I finally found the perfect A3 folder though. Red leather. *drool* Damn it was difficult to find, everything in the portfolio world seems to be black. 😐 Anyways, I’m very pleased with it. But it’s only the start. I’m now going through pictures trying to decide what to include and doing mock-ups of how to lay the pictures out. Some of which are still in my head waiting to be shot. Erm. Just as well, as I don’t think I can afford to get them all printed at the same time. The cheapest A3 prints I can get are 8 euros a pop. So it adds up quite quickly when you need at least 20 of those… Johanna came over yesterday (with Olli) to give me some pointers and she left me her old portfolio for reference. Talk about feeling inadequate. 😐 Hers is full of top models and celebrities and spreads from fashion mags… Ho hum.

Olli had grown so much again. Nothing hammers the realisation of the speed of time home faster than watching your friends’ kids grow. Practically overnight.

Oh I removed the link to the blog from the main site. I just didn’t feel comfortable that every stranger that checks out my gallery would automatically find the blog as well. Hopefully those of you who do want to find it, still do though. =P

Everyone I know seems to be suddenly looking for (or have already bought!) a new bigger flat/house. (Admittedly most of them also have kids now or are pregnant :|). I so got tempted last night as well though. One more room would be bliss. An office/studio. And a garden… *sigh* πŸ˜€ Only thing that puts me off is the fact that I really really hate moving… yet I seem to do it every two to three years. Erm. Go figure.
