I've not been out of work in probably twenty years. That changed last week.
This is my first real adventure as a person who is not employed by a company. The IRS tells me I am self employed and makes sure they get the benefit of it, so I can't really say I'm not employed. However, self-employment hasn't paid a majority of the bills. YET.
I am looking for new avenues of income that please me -- and the perfect way to create it.
Here are some things I've noticed today, that would please me about "work." Working at home would be kinda cool. Here's why:
1. A short commute. It took me 20 seconds to get to work today.
2. A pet friendly environment. My dogs came to work with me today.
3. I can control the temperature in my office to suit me.
4. The coffee is just the way I like it.
5. I can leave at any time to run personal errands.
6. Naps. This is negotiable.
7. My coworkers are like family.
8. There is time to strategize.
About Me
- Joni McClain
- I am a photographer, actor, director, and chaplain in Austin TX. Whether it’s taking photos, chaplain-ing, acting, or directing, the heart of my ideal work is to wholeheartedly explore myself, others, the world and the human condition. Through inspiration and encouragement, we can experience the truth of who we are, our connections, joy, love, vulnerability, and delight. I turn my camera toward many subjects, but my passion is portraiture. As Dorothy Parker says, "People are more fun than anybody." Nothing is more gorgeous, attractive, and compelling than authenticity. I am committed to supporting others in cultivating their own authenticity in the world. I love capturing the inner light of people on location or in a studio setting in Austin TX. Love and Light Images. Loving. Authentic. Fun. Photography.
Pay me a visit. :-)

Good luck! I know you will land on your feet.
Thanks Ronni -- I think so too!

As far as self-employment goes, are you still doing photography? Mom (Ronni) told me you are still in that business and I would like to request you services for my wedding next March. St. Patrick's Day, to be exact.
I want to make sure I get a photographer who knows what they're doing, and I know you do.
I'm alsso on a tight budget, so if we can chat sometime about the services you would provide, that would be great.
