Dear $3.50 boogie sucker...you saved my life.
So, I went to Target today to look for a new blanket for tomorrow. (Triplet shoot EEEEEK)
I found this huge heart shape pillow that I could easily fit 3 babies on. I have my bean bag but I was a little concerned it would be a tight squeeze for a few shots I wanted to do.
I went back and forth if I should buy it. I already spent $ this week on gear and I am trying not to buy anymore props. Being so nervous about tomorrow, I decided to just get it. Well thank God I did !!
When I came home I took a pic to share with my online photog friends. On all of my pics was a little gray dot. I took a billion hoping it was the lens or my flash. It wasnt, I knew it was dust on the sensor. Immediately I freak out because I have this shoot @ 11 am tomorrow. No camera stores around here so I couldn't get a rocket blower or anything(its a little bulb that you squeeze and air comes out, you use it to blow the dust off)
I was about to call the mom and cancel for tomorrow. No clue where that little spot would land so I wasnt sure I could even photoshop it out.
Sean asked if I could just use an infant boogie sucker LOL
I searched some more, and found a thread on ILP that someone had used one before. Off to Walgreens I went, bought one for $3.49. Came home and read in my manual how to clean it. As soon as i flipped the mirror up I could see a little dot, blew some air and it was gone. Could it be???? Put the lens back on ... YIPEEEEEEEEEE all fixed :)
Anyway, here is the pillow - and my dust before I cleaned it.
