Oh the Olympics
Posted in Thoughts on 06/10/2008 02:25 am by AmySo today I met with representatives from the City of Eugene and a marketing consultant from NIKE about working on some graphics for the Olympic Trials for track and field taking place in Hayward Field - University of Oregon.
I have been hired to design signage, banners, etc for the NIKE sponsored Kids area. Basically, it’s an area for 10-12 year old kids that are interested in hanging out, playing and learning about track and field and of course, about NIKE - all this action will be set up across the street from Hayward Field during the Olympic Trials. So…busy week ahead of me!
I was thinking today how cool it is that projects like this kinda just fall in my lap. God has been so faithful to provide for us while Jason is learning his trade of photography. Which is actually going pretty well. He has 3 weddings booked in the next few months, as well as several commercial jobs.
I am going to go with Jason to the weddings he has booked this summer and act as the secondary photographer. It should be fun to work with him and get paid to run around with a camera. He has to do all the hard work of lighting and working with the bride and her family and I just get to hang out and take photos - no pressure! I like that. haha. I’m used to having to be the boss all the time in my own business. I forgot how nice it is that someone else has to be the business person and I just get to relax and do what I’m good at.
Welp, I’m going to sit here and eat my gelato (yumm!) and watch a funny movie… relax one more night before I dig into the NIKE project tomorrow. Whew! Wish me luck!
