    I'm an award-winning photographer...

    ...sortof.

    A few of the photos I took of Maranda and shared a bit ago were entered into a couple local modeling competitions. I don't know the details but her mom just left a message on my voice mail to say this one won her a trophy and a tiara in the "environmental" category:



    Personally I'm not too impressed with myself since her arm looks filthy as hell, but apparently they weren't all that particular about it.

    Just thought I'd share. I could care less really, but I'm bored and wanted to start another thread to kill time.

    lol thanks forn. I dunno how special the competition is/was though. Maybe a trophy and a tiara is like honorable mention and everyone gets one.

    She made it a point to call me though so I guess it meant something to them. Even if that's something like third place out of say 100 girls, it might mean more business my way.
