Never Grow Up - Now Famous!!!
 

Our very own fellow swanker Never Grow Up has a portrait covering the entire front page of today's Argonaut paper (local to Santa Monica area). :snap:

He just called me, and he's absolutely ecstatic. :D

If anyone lives or works in that area, pick up your free copy and check it out!!

Um, I hate to say this ... but who's Never Grow Up?


Now that they're famous, they need to post more!!!

Paul of www.paulmanke.com. He's been to some swankings. :p

I know he doesn't get a chance to post much anywhere due to being busy.

Isn't he a little too young to be on LoT?

Congrats! NGU was Disneypile's wedding photographer. btw.

Oh congrats NGU,
it couldnt happen to a nicer guy. Congrats again.

Yes, and I get a zillion emails from him asking if I want to buy pictures from said wedding.

Damned automated email systems.

Unfortunately, that's stupid Pictage that does it. :(

NGU is also the good friend and photographer that books wedding and event video work for me. So, pardon me if I'm a little defensive of him.

I'll see what can be done about the Pictage issue.

Making bank off your art is always an achievement in my book. WTG! :cheers:

Did you buy any pics from the site?
That doubles your email quota. ;)

(I know it isnt paul's issue, its still amusing)

Oh, I know. I think I got an email every other day. That's the main downside to Pictage.

That's why I have a separate email address specifically for signing-up for things. They can spam it to their heart’s delight. I never read anything except the sign-up confirmation emails.

The only advantage to Pictage's email sign-in requirement: It allows the event's owner to view the entire sign-in list for that event. And, in our case, I caught an old boyfriend stalking our engagement and wedding photos, and was able to peg down some "anonymous" messages that we were receiving from him.

Ya gotta love Gmail ;)

Don't worry about it. No need to be defensive about Paul: he is an awesome photog.

Yes, Susan did buy a couple of shots from the wedding (she wanted some good shots of the cake).

Congratulations Paul! Awsomeness!

Actually, it's one of the 8 email addresses Earthlink gives you.

I am very excited about the cover!! I drove up to Marina Del Rey and got about 20 copies!!

Sorry about all the spam from Pictage!

There is an "unsubscribe" option in every message.
