This past weekend I went to a co-worker’s birthday/divorce party. He is also in a band that I have been doing some graphic design work for, and am doing photo shoots of as well. I got a few pics of them playing on the lakefront, but the lighting was bad so I struggled with them during post-processing (which really pissed me off).

A few weeks ago I came across divorce cakes online, and bookmarked a few in my del.icio.us account. Once I found out this was his divorce party also, I couldn’t wait to call the best bakery around to see if they could hook me up with a divorce cake! They laughed (a lot) on the phone at me, but it turned out great. I told them I wanted a wedding cake gone wrong, or something with a lot of blood and the groom MUST be triumphant.

It was a hit! It was cute as it could be, and the “groom” loved it. I’m happy it went over well. I love when things work out… unlike that photo shoot (uggh!)…

I hope my new camera comes in before their next gig. I just know I will get better pictures, because I’ll have more freedom when it comes to the camera settings. Oh, that’s another post. I’m trying to follow the rules of everything I have been schooling myself on via everyone else’s blogs, however my current camera is quite limited. I’m just over it. I need freedom with a camera, and I hope mine comes.. today!!
