Photographer Wanted

Post by opticnerve »

Hi guys,

I'm looking for someone to take professional high-def pictures of my vintage Rics.

Some may be used for Pauls' bass book.

I'm in Northern New Jersey...just minutes from Manhattan.

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks!

Well, the photographer doesn’t necessarily have to be professional...but the results should be. :wink:

It should become a TV show like Anthony Bourdain does (No Reservations, Layover). Instead of trying food, Jeff takes pictures of Rickenbackers, then he eats. 8)

I would appreciate photos as soon as possible. I'll be starting to rebuild the book in the professional page-maker program next week, and hope to finish in September. Anything past September will be tweaks and corrections for final submission. I can't keep everything open till the last minute or I'll go mad. :twisted: I gotta stop sometime so I can get it published!

Understood Paul. I'm scouring Craiglist now. There seems to be a few candidates.

Thanks Tony. Bear in mind that I welcome your submissions, but I can't compensate you for your expenses. This is a labor of love (obviously) and I'm not getting rich on this.
