Photo shoot results and 30th birthday

The photo shoot didn't turn out too well, since the lighting wasn't right. Everything will have to be re-done.

The 30th birthday party was quite interesting with all the drunk people at the braai. There were supposed to be 29 people coming, but a lot less turned up.

Photo shoot and advertising campaign

Yesterday we did a photo shoot of various new costumes for displaying on my small costume rental website.
The costumes included two Spiderman costumes, Clone Trooper, Jango Fett and a Jedi Knight.
Now I just need somebody for posing in the various female costumes to get decent photos for the website. Maybe a student might want to earn extra cash...

Now I am working on a business card, getting a sign ready for advertising at a hairdresser near my home and possibly newspapers.
Newspapers seem to be quite expensive for advertising and the Yellow Pages also seem expensive and accroding to my experience it is difficult to get the details of the ad changed properly once the ad does exist.
