Field Notes

July 13

Photography

• Photographed at 3 public Ride Outs in Denver, one private dirt track that is open to the public and one private appt with some kids in town.

• Posting to Instagram and sending photos by text or email to anyone who gives me contact info.

• Need to start getting more appointments for private shoots. People say yes in person but do not answer texts.  The regular riders are getting used to me showing up and I'm learning their names. Am close to getting an appt with one of the kids’ moms I met at a ride out. They live in the county. However, there is a heat dome sitting over the state so not a lot going on right now.

• Preparing for the Denver Mega Ride, a major e-riding event that starts Wednesday night in Colorado Springs and progresses with rides in Denver on Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun. Saturday afternoon is the main ride. My goal for the rides will be to cover the rides themselves and to make solid connections with people I meet there for future photography appointments. All of the ride locations and even the Vendor's Row location are announced at the last minute. It will still be very hot for the rides.

• Many counties in Colorado are tightening restrictions so there's some places that people aren't riding any more. I've heard of riders being issued citations. 

Research

• Have sent introduction emails with requests for interviews out to eight photographers and waiting for replies.
