Well I was, since having to cut out concert photography I have been going stir crazy as it was about half of the photography I did. I have a gallery that I am associated with but you know I don't do much after I get the photos I want, I print and frame them and it is the last I see of them sometimes. I need to rearrange my office before I bring in a print/negative scanner, so shooting film is waiting on me to get it done but I am not sure how I want to do the office, so it is progressing slowly, oh so slowly moving along.
Anyway Monday I received a call from another gallery wanting to talk about me being part of the permanent collection (as with any gallery permanent is until you tire of each other). So today I got another call and tomorrow we will be finalizing me selling through them also. This now means I need to get my ass going and start producing again since now I have a second gallery to furnish and since I am so picky on what I will sell it will take me time to have enough quality photos for the two galleries now and enough back items so when something sells I have a photos ready to print and frame to replace what I sell.
With the new gallery I will be their first and only photographer. The Gallery started in Europe in 1908 and then moved to Montreal from 1967 to 1975 and then to Toronto since. So with the heritage of the gallery being the first photographer is a thrill to be associated with a gallery of with this history. Now I feel motivated and maybe get me out of my old man crankiness lmaooo.
Well between trying to get this deal done and getting times and locations set up for the book shots seems I am more of an office worker than a photographer sometimes, now things seem to be falling into place with both, the book is still a while away but at least have two locations worked out and dates and times settled on to get a few more photos for it done. So I guess dealing with the business side is the one part that takes getting used to. Just too hyper to be at home dealing with that side of it. Usually I am running around taking photos, doing things, this sitting around home/office can drive a sane man mad. At least it is not for naught.
