Today was my first day of work at my new job as the photographer for the Grand County Newspapers here in Granby, Colo.
It has been more than 21 years since I worked as a full-time newspaper photographer, hence the name of my blog. In the years between newspaper gigs I have worked as a meetings/group coordinator for a resort, done sales and p.r. for a small ski resort/hotel, managed Front Range sales efforts for a major Colorado ski resort, been the assistant media relations director for a major Colorado ski resort, been the staff photographer for that same ski resort, then having that job eliminated, I became a full-time freelance photographer, while driving a shuttle bus part-time for a ski resort and coaching boys and girls soccer at the local high school.
But now I return to my newspaper roots. This is actually a great opportunity as the paper is getting ready to get a major re-design and move towards being a daily county-wide paper. I'm really looking forward to the chance to be a part of the new and improved newspaper. We've got a great staff that is really easy to work with, which makes going to work a pleasure.
We'll see what the future holds...
