Jobs jobs jobs!

Ok, as you might have heard, i got a job!
Actually, i got 2 jobs! So thats the good thing, the bad thing is, that neither of these jobs are full time, not even part time.. So i STILL need to find yet another job.

The first one i got is as an LCC, or Local childcare coordinator for the company that brought me to this country in the first place- Cultural care au pair. My LCC website can be found here.
My job is to market the program, sell it, find new hostfamilies and interview them, hold monthly au pair meetings, and be a support during the hostfamilies and au pairs year together.
It seems like fun, and its very flexible. I work from home.
The bad thing about that, is that i dont get paid by the hour, i get paid per family, and right now, i only have 5 families.

The second job i got is as a receptionist at "the heritage" a privately owned beautiful home for the elderly. However, this is just on an "on call basis" So they just call me when someone is sick, or on vacation, which might not happen so often. Their website is here.

My wedding photography goes slow...too slow! Actually, its my own fault.
First of all, I need new equipment, new lenses, tripod, a laptop, even a new camera! To capture the best photos, a wedding demands 2 cameras. (so u dont have to change lenses all the time)
But camera equipment is expensive and the money keeps running off towards certain airplane tickets here and there :-) It's always something!! It feels like I can never get started.
I see people on facebook all the time saying "just bought this lens" "just bought this filter" blablabla. And some of these people are not even into photography! Its not fair! How can people afford this shit??!

But what i need most of all, is confidence. Man, my classmate i told u about in the spring, who never did any weddings. Well, he did 2 now. One in Ireland and one in Chigago. He is really good, but he also dares to get out there, and he dares to charge. He just raised his prices.
His "cheapest package" is $3500, do y'all know how much that is??? thats fucking 30.000 swedish crownes. His most expensive one is insane, $6500!!!!
check out his website here

And here I am, wanting to do weddings for free :-)

Anyway, I've been checking some weddingphotographers out and send them emails with a cover letter asking if they need an assistant, for free even! I just want some experience. Now i just have to keep doing that until someone answers.

I really feel i can do this. I really feel like i can be a photographer. Its my call here in life. I would work with my passion.

Now, if you'll exuse me, I just have to go rob a bank.

See ya!
