Default San Francisco work question

Hi Guys....

Can anyone help me with some info about possible work in San Francisco? I'm in the photographic / retouching / desktop publishing trade.........is anyone involved in that area??? What is the work situation like?? Many jobs??

I've been involved in this type of work for over 15 years, and although I'd like to concentrate on photography full time I'd probably find it easier to get work in the reprographics side first of all...

If anyone on here could actually offer me a job, sadly I can't move till at least Aug 2005 (have wedding photography commitments until then!!)

Cheers for any help and info

Mike

I know a guy 50 miles south of San Fran who is an equine photographer and he's doing alright for himself out there.

Hi
Also try www.craigslist.org
There is a huge amount of good stuff on there including jobs and rentals and real estate etc. It's a great resource.
