Industry Night Columbia College Chicago

An amazing turnout at Columbia College in Chicago tonight for Industry Night: an evening showcasing graduating students' portfolios.  And everyone was invited!
"I had no idea it was going to be as big as it was; I was quite impressed!" said Chicago photographer Adam Daniels.  "Great job @ccjuhlin and team for putting it on!"

I had noticed that several members, photographers and assistants, from the Chicago/Midwest chapter of ASMP-American Society of Media Photographers (@chimwasmp) were on the 5th floor at Columbia: to support the very talented photography students; to explain the benefits of being part of a growing team of photographers whom are ASMP; and to search for bright new photo assistants to mentor, and/or hire!

Here are some business cards--shot with a Profoto 300w/s Compact with barn doors (to prevent spill & fill from my white walls--I collected throughout the evening of some very talented individuals.  If yours isn't in here, my apologies for having not picked it up, or for loosing it when going for cash in my pockets for the red-line ticket home. 

Keep up-to-date with industry nights at @industrynight on Twitter!  And as always, @chimwasmp for your local Chicago/Midwest ASMP Chapter!

Sincerely,
Adam Daniels Studios

Less Humans

I'm sad today.  Why?  Because I bought a lottery ticket from a vending machine.  I believe this gives the customer service desk at grocery stores now only two purposes:

1.  To sell cancer sticks to adults, or to under-agers with believable IDs.

2.  To house comment card drop-boxes wherein under-agers--those who failed the whole fake ID thing--have disgustingly sketched a set of super-sized male genitalia in the "other comments" box.
