Have I committed sacralege, Converted my garage.

Hi all

over christmas I converted my gargage to support my other hobby of photography.

Below are some before and after shots.

DONT worry the car come back in at night, and sits on a big matt with a drip tray (bad sign)

question is have i commited sacraledge on the sacred garage space??

(I don't think so it's really nice to work in there now!)

Did you do a Mr Bean and just explode a tin of white paint?!

Seen as how it is now more cosy Mrs Nib will be thinking it will be fine to extend the living space in to it. Your on a slippery slope sunshine! Next thing you know she will be wanting to sell the car to pay for the work!

hmmm....

Your wife already started if you didn't notice.

By the time it took you to pick up the camera, she already put a mirror on the wall.

Converted your garage to summat else!!! You'll go to hell for that.

The only possible redemption is to build a new garage twice the size, fullt equipped with underfloor heating and automatic dehumidifiers.

I'm sure the missus will understand it is the only way to salvage your soul!!

If the cars still allowed in to live there, and your still allowed to work on it in there then that sounds great.

What are the hitches?

I like it - i assume you've got different rolls to drape - how are you keeping it warm?

I've got an arrangement using bits of wood, king sized bed sheets in the lounge ... except the g/f won't agree to pose to try it out

my wife has just announced that our upstairs lounge is now to be her photography studio. so its out with the white paint for me too! just have to find a new home for the sofas that have been sat on at least twice.
I have also been given a shopping list for studio lights and backdrops. was just about to have a moan about the costs when she informed me she has 3 boudoir shoots booked for next week.
bonus
Mark Cleghorn and phototraining4you have a lot to answer for!

Must admit when I said burlesque and cars I was thinking of women rather than men! Just the cars would be a LOT better than cars with burlesque men!

I would love to try and downsize the need for studio equipment however Mark Cleghorn is training my wife as one of his apprentices on his website and there is no way she would accept that anyone else who does it differently could be as good.

are you on the SWPP?

do you have a photography website we can view your pics on?

where do you get your models from? purestorm?
