Fun!

The last few weeks have been filled with new experiences, fun photo shoots, and back-to-school. I've met a ton of new people, which has been awesome. I'm excited to work with new students this semester. They seem so eager to learn. It's inspiring, really. It makes me want to learn new techniques; try new things. So with that in mind, I finally ordered some portable lights.

Here's some test shots from tonight...I think my models had a bit too much fun:




More to come very soon!

Advertising

So I think I'm getting addicted to blogging, despite the fact I'm a few years behind the trend...oh well! Anyway, I just have to say, I'm so impressed by how far word-of-mouth advertising has taken my business. Two nights ago, while waiting for the meteor shower, I got bored and decided to work on my Facebook fan page that my bestie, Dave, started for me probably 4 months ago. I hadn't really done much to it since then, so I started adding photos, then sent out some fan requests. By 8am I had over 125 fans (mind you, I sent out the requests at like midnight). It's day 2 now, and I have 191 fans...how awesome is that?

My new 'fan base' has really made me think of just how lucky I've been so far with my photography. I've never placed a single ad, and I'm getting so many calls and emails everyday asking about different photo shoots: weddings, seniors, reunions, maternity, and the list goes on. It's an exciting time. My wedding season is quickly filling up for 2010. It's great! Let's just hope it keeps going that way!

I've got a bunch of new shoots coming up in the next few weeks, so I'll be sure to post more info/photos of them as soon as I can!.
