17 000 Images
Today I woke up, said hello to the gaggle of models and stylists and fashiony people who are in the studio for a 2 day catalogue shoot with Reilly of their spring line, and promptly got to work catching up on recent shoots and weddings.
For 9 hours, I sat at my computer and carefully worked through apx. 17 000 photos, getting rid of the duds of course but mostly making decisions like this one is better than that one or this one and this is a better photo of the mother in law than the one earlier in the day so let’s keep this one and scrap that one.
This works out to working through over 30 images per minute for each of the 540 minutes that fell between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm.
I’d say that if I never saw another photo again I would be happy, but tomorrow I have a similar number to work through, nevermind it’s actually my job and I mostly love it.
Procrastination is bad, yo. Let my pain be a lesson to you!
