My new job is mostly lame partly because I'm way overqualified but mostly because it's a retail job. This week I had the opportunity to be a part of something cool. Many of you know that I am a "makeup artist". Whatever that means I'm not too sure. What I do know is that when I get to tap into my makeup artist skills, especially for something cool, it satisfies me and leaves me smiling. This week a photography student from the Art Institute called up [my company] looking for help. She needed someone to do hair and makeup for a model she was going to photograph. I jumped at the chance to do something different. If one day I decide to make money from this talent I can use these photographs in my own portfolio. Or maybe Jenny (that's the photographer's name) will hire me when she gets famous.
Good luck with your photography, Jenny. Don't forget about me when you're famous!
