Okay...so, I don't know about the rest of y'all, but I'm kind of enjoying this whole being a bit more interactive on our blogs. :) Feedback is nice...and I feel a bit more motivated when I actually comment on blogs rather than just read them. [maybe because I have to think of nice things to say. haha!]
Anyway, today was stressful. I didn't think I was going to be able to get any photography done, but this evening I managed to tear myself away from work at 8 [oh, don't worry, I still have lots left for tomorrow. :P] and come home. So, I've managed to get about 1.5 hours of photography stuff done. I revised some of my wedding packages I put together, trying to build value into them. I also was doing a bit more research on what I like about other photographers in the DC area. Unfortunately, there were a lot of websites I went on that I thought were cheesy. [I guess that's actually not so unfortunate, because now maybe if I get my website all nice and cool than it'll make more of an impression. ooooh, yeah...] I also looked through a magazine for inspiration. I tried an Outdoor photographer magazine instead of a Home and Gardens or Bridal Magazine. It was definitely not as inspiring. :P
Besides all of that, I started writing my "engagement shoot" part of my client story. I didn't get very far, though...but, hey, at least I started it. I also mailed a bride her photographs [exactly 4 weeks and 2 days after her wedding...yay!]
Tomorrow I have my call with Christina from 12-1. Besides that, I don't really have any other things that are pressing, so I am going to try and be working on assignments later on tomorrow evening.
I hope everyone had a great Monday. :)

Sorry your search for inspiration wasn't as productive as you hoped. I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for soon. I agree with you about the comments, it really makes it more interactive and gives people a reason to blog.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree! The feedabck is great. I wasn't even sure anyone read what I was writting on my blog. But I suppose everybody was wondered the same thing. Nothing like a little contest to get people motivated!
ReplyDeleteGreat work on your turn around time for those wedding images, that is pretty impressive considering you are working full time [and overtime] at your other job!
YES! FOR COMMENTS!! I was NOT motivated to write anything before... because I felt like I was talking to myself, which seemed like a waste of time. I also didn't feel like I was in a group, now I DO! I've loved getting feedback/advice from everyone!
ReplyDeleteYou are SUPER busy! I admire your dedication to everything! WOW! I feel like there isn't enough time in my day to get everything done now, I can only imagine what it would be like if I worked full time!
I need to find stuff for inspirations box... I haven't been able to find things to inspire me... I think this is a bad thing I nee to work on fixing. :)
I know, I love feedback too :)
ReplyDeleteI so understand the "Oh, don't worry, I still have lots for tomorrow" That would be the story of my life! I'm sorry about your search for inspiration, yep, that's a challenge. I looked through a kitchen catalog today cause my small town wasn't too abundant on the photography magazines. I uh didn't get much out of it... :P
Here's to us both having more inspiration soon!!
You amaze me :)
