i went to the photo shooting studio yesterday which was a new agency we picked up. i arrived at the studio at 10 o’clock but nobody was waiting for me there. i called the contact and asked him why was nobody here. he said i will be arrived in 5 minutes but after we entered through the door we found 1 person was there but he didn’t hear anything. i sat down first, i was tired, waited a long time for them and we started to work, with the first thing being sitting down and the 2nd thing was making some composition some displays. The theme of the first photo was the french open like a tennis match so it took us 2 hours to get the picture because we had to draw the background with clay.
