Who's That Girl?
My name...Anna Zatopek
Where I live...Austin, TX
My style... I prefer the stealth method. I like to catch 'em unawares.
My website... www.annazatopek.com
The piece of equipment I can't part with...24-70 2.8 and the Epson P3000. Such a cool little device.
The album company I use...KISS! I won I won! www.kissweddingbooks.com
A website I visit often...www.statcounter.com. I'm addicted to seeing how many hits I get. Is that so wrong?
One thing I do daily for my business...Research.
What I charge for an 4 x 6...$9
3 things you'll find on my desk...Coffee, nail polish, and a mouse pad designed by my daughter.
Something you must have in every business....Patience and a thick skin. I'm not good at employing either technique, but I work on it everyday.
Something I always have with me during a photo shoot...A reflector, blotting tissues (for too much facial dewiness) and a white plastic bag for when outdoor surfaces are less than dry.
If I could have someone shoot a portrait of me if would be... My uncle. He is a wonderful photographer. Truthfully, I'd rather just stay behind the camera, though.
A challenge I face in my company...Staying focused. There are so many things to do and keep up with and I'm just one person! Calgon take me away!
If not a photographer I would have been a ....Graphic designer. I love that stuff and might still get into it one day. I do a bit of it for my clients, but I'd love to learn more!
A blog I must read daily...my best friend's, my sister's and my own. I also subscribe to the bloglines listing through OSP and periodically check in on the peeps there, but only when I have the time. It's too easy to get way sidetracked checking out what everyone is up to.
Anna's favorite image of recent
What I had for dinner...Lasagna with Shaman blessed bison meat. Delicious!
Where you'll find me on a Friday night at 7 pm...Home curled up with a movie, queso, and my handsome man.
The brand of jeans I prefer .... Whatever I can find at Target. I'm not picky. Love Target.
A hobby of mine...Jewelry design! I tried to make a business out of it once, but I kept wearing everything I made.
5 years from now I will have ... One more kiddo perhaps, and hopefully a big honkin' Mac computer, the lastest Canon and a tweenager. Yipe!
Something that annoys me... Bluetooth talkers in quiet stores. Yeesh! Have some awareness of your surroundings. Gah!
My best feature... My second to last right toe. Quite lovely things, toes. Ok, so seriously...my husband has a few ideas here. I won't subject you to
them.
Something that is so overrated...It's been a while since I've seen a really good movie. Any suggestions are welcome, but I'm beginning to really dislike anything coming out of Hollywood.
My favorite cocktail... Heffeweissen with lemon (if I'm with my best friend), wine otherwise! Sangria is good, too.
My astrological sign... Sagittarius
Something I must have for summer....A new body. Working on that one.
2 things I would never throw away...First haircuts and my child's art work.
One thing you'll never find me doing...Hunting. Sick. Homey would disagree with me here.
I believe that...You should shoot first and ask for permission later.
On top of my pizza you'll find....Mushrooms and black olives.
3 things I like in a boy...Confidence, a strong jaw line, and muscles.
