I know, it's been a very long time......such is the life of a busy lady!! I feel terrible that it's been this long since my last post, but a lot has happened in the last..mmmm...8 months! Holy, that's my last post?! 8 months ago!? Ooops!
Anyway, let me start of by saying Thank You to everyone who has supported me and wished me all the best in the last year. It was my first year as a professional photographer, and I have to say it went amazing! I have learned so much from other photographers, friends & family. I thought for a while there that this may all fall through on me. You see, I went through a "Dead Zone" "Writers Block" or as a photographer might say "Shutter lag" for a while. no calls, no work, just frustration. As a photographer, you have to be proactive in getting work, you have to be tenacious and willing to take critique, especially from other professionals. Willing to go above and beyond to get your name and work out there to be seen. That, my friends; is the business of the Art world. There are many of us all over and we each have something different to offer. Some may love my work, while others may dislike it. That is for you as a consumer to decide.
I had an "ahah" moment a while back and in doing some research on local photographers, I found that they are priced at ridiculous costs. Especially with the majority of turn-around time being so long that most people have already forgotten what the wedding looked like!
A light-bulb came on, if we could provide amazing wedding photography at a more reasonable price during these tough economic times.... maybe it would make a difference in people's lives. And that in turn would be an awesome J-O-B; getting paid to make people happy, help them out, and capture some of the most special moments in their lives!
That has become our company mission: To provide amazing photography at affordable prices!
It's that simple. That's what we are striving for.
So in that, I thought i would maybe rethink the business a little bit, and get better prices with better service to clients. So it has been a few months of craziness, and we are finally settling back into the flow of things. I actually finished a family photo session last weekend. It went GREAT! Stay posted for the teaser photos coming soon!
Again thank you to everyone for your ongoing support, and I hope to photograph all of you soon! :)
