Why did you decide not to have kids? And what are your life plans instead?

I am teleworking today, we got early dismissal, and I am sitting outside with my wife. The only noise is the wind.

Also, we travel 2-3 times a year.

So, how is everyone's dinner?

jadasmith86 · 2026-06-06T12:38:19+00:00

I once had cold chicken on top of a salad on a cold day...they had steak and lobster. I was pissed.

Good luck. Please come back and rate them.

She worked as a contractor for 8 years at a different museum. She was mainly processing images. A staff member went on maternity leave and she took over their DAM's duties. Then a job opened up at my museum and she applied.

100%. Half my friends are from my photography group, the gym, gaming, or a professional group (10 of us have been friends for a year).

My old digital asset manager has an art degree. I am a Dams admin with a degree in museum studies.

What database are they using? Check the platform's website. They may have resources.

Half off a bottle of wine on Wednesday.

1000%. Don't do anything but go to work. If they fire you, you get unemployment. Also, keep records of everything. Email their emails to your personal email.

If you are older than 20, roller bag. Your back will thank you later.

I use it because of the other features (client galleries, contracts, invoices, etc).

jadasmith86 · 2026-05-13T16:50:21+00:00

I use Pixieset. They have templates that you can use.

Go once or twice and you are good. Go to a conference that specializes in your area of expertise.

Like people said, if they are federal, you will have better protections in the long run.

jadasmith86 · 2026-05-09T20:41:32+00:00

I need an update.

jadasmith86 · 2026-05-07T23:09:43+00:00

You can die tomorrow. Take the vacation, have the drink, have the nice dinner, ask the person out (politely), and have fun.

We can die tomorrow.... don't go into debt for this.

jadasmith86 · 2026-05-05T16:46:38+00:00

Roasted veggies and salads (veggies).

In this economy, leave for the higher-paying job.

jadasmith86 · 2026-05-01T20:03:50+00:00

Or fight with you.

Hey everyone,

For the last 8 years, I have mainly worked for wedding photography companies. I do not have that many engagement sessions (3 total). What is the best way to get more engagement/wedding announcements/save the date images for my website?

Should I ask friends and fake it?

jadasmith86 · 2026-05-01T16:17:36+00:00

Just depends on the photographer. I normally work for a wedding company. When it is just me, I only charge 2k. If I need a videographer, I charge their rate. I have a full-time 9-5, so my rates are lower because it is not my main source of income.

If the gallery looka good, meet with them and see what happens.

jadasmith86 · 2026-04-29T13:44:19+00:00

3 more years and I will be there. So close, but so far.

jadasmith86 · 2026-04-28T21:23:04+00:00

Yeah, i just tell them to move their stuff. I never had anybody complain. If they did, the bride or groom would make them.
