Though I'm a full-time student for one more semester, my only job is photography these days. I did a couple of weddings this summer (shudder), shot the Superbike races at Mid-Ohio for superbikeplanet.com, I've done work for a local nature group for their presentations, I just got a job shooting a custom Harley chopper for the owner who's trying to get it into various biker mags and I'm selling prints through my web site (go a last-minute Christmas order going out today). All kinds of "odds and ends" jobs like these. Oh, and giving private lessons in Photoshop - no kidding. I'm pretty much all digital for work, though I still sometimes shoot film for fun (mostly b&w in the 645). Camera is the ist-D. Most used lenses for "work shooting" are the FA*80-200/2.8, FA*28-70/2.8 and Tamron 17-35/2.8-4. I use the Sigma EF500 DG Super flash - if I'd decided to do more weddings I'd have bought a Quantum power pack for it, as it is it works fine for the shooting I do now. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
