I went from slut to whore: I accepted a paying photo assignment.



A longtime admirer of my work asked me to take photographs of their
executive staff?executives in action, not static headshots?for promotional
purposes.  I told my admirer that I wasn?t a pro, only shot in black and
white, and used film exclusively.  The admirer insisted; I gave a
?shut-up-and-get-out-of-my-face? price, which was accepted on the spot.



So, eight rolls of Neopan 400 later, and about fifty usable images posted,
I accepted my coin.



Now back to the ingenues at the flea markets.
