It Was Worth It
I worked for a wedding photographer. A wonderful couple seemed like they were made in heaven. Their wedding album WITHOUT pictures costed 2k. It was made from mirrored glass, weighed a ton. It was my job to order the 60 – 8×10’s the bride wanted to have. This album had no protective sleeves, so every single pic had to be sprayed with a chemical coating and left to dry in a dust-free area. If it did not dry with a smooth, dust-free finish, I had to remove the chemical coating and try again. I spent most of that week, in a tiny closet-sized room, in full respirator mask and protective gloves & eyewear, spraying those damn pics. But my God, I have to say, it was the best job ever! When done, this couple spent over $5,000 on that one album…It was GORGEOUS!…and they divorced before the year was up. DUH!
