More Jobs

I worked at PartyCrashers Photography as a picture framer and occasional studio assistant when the photographer Tom needed help "wrangling" the live animals he was shooting the kids with.  Tom is an awesome photographer and I witnessed him work some true magic with kids and animals.  I also shot quite a few weddings with Deborah Sussex who is based in Ely, Minnesota.  You can't ask for a nicer and more down to earth photographer.  It was a pleasure to work with her and she is a great inspiration to me.  I ran my own business of Hartmann Custom Framing for a few years.  I was a really good picture framer.  But one day I decided it was really boring and I would rather be out taking and framing my own pictures.  So I pretty much stopped framing for others.  I do find it funny though that even many years later people still ask me to frame their pictures.  I have learned to politely say No.  Let's see... how about one more for todays post... how about Little Canada Bingo Hall.  Good money, crazy ladies with having fun displaying their trolls for good luck, me going to bed smelling like smoke... oh the memories....
