I thought this might interest the group. It's from this morning's Sacramento 
Bee.

The lede:

High school students waiting to have senior portraits taken once filled 
Richard Givens' photography studio on Coloma Road in Rancho Cordova.

Now that studio holds all his worldly possessions.

The career school photographer rented out his spacious Gold River home a 
couple years ago and moved into his studio to make ends meet.

Sigh.
