I DO enjoy seeing these things first hand though. A sunrise or sunset sets me on fire.

Photographing children has never appealed to me, so kudos to those who do it, and do it well. I get so disheartened when I see people with an iPhone thinking they can capture a wedding, or have fine skill of shooting children. I’m old and still miss the times when you had to learn how to operate a camera, with film and as photographers, we stood out. You had to know how to drive the damn thing.

One thing to do is find FB community groups and if allowed, post there for your photoshoots. Do some promos and make it fun, IMO part of the whole process is the fun in the actual experience of the session!

I am constantly trying to find ways to be found online for my officiating business. It’s not easy, but it can be done! Learn about SEO and keywords, that sure helps.

I’m new to Instagram and will only use it for my biz, but I am loving it. No new clients from it, but it does highlight my officiating for LGBT couples.

Girl you have an amazing eye. I’ve seen your work, and I am a fan.

A link to some of my work is in the signature of my posts.

Good luck!
Thanks darling. For the tips as well as the support! I have always been a fan of what you do. I've kept an eye on your work over the years. You are a beautiful and soulful photographer. Right up my alley

I love shooting children. There is no ego involved and I'm not much at posing and directing so I pretty much just let them do their thing and try to catch the moment. It's a lot of fun for me.

Ok, well here's my links all nice and neat in one list if anyone's interested. Thanks for the Facebook Likes and Reviews!!!
