Changes in 2010

I have only been in the photography business for a little over three months now. I can not believe or begin to tell you about all the things I've learned from business, lighting, posing and more! Now that I have a few clients under my belt I'm also learning a bit more about pricing and marketing. I just want to let you all know, you spoke, and I listened. I'll be making changes over the next month to packaging and pricing. Sign up for my newsletter and you can have all changes emailed directly to your inbox. I have gained a few new backgrounds this last month and I'll be adding new props soon. Thank you again to all the family and friends who have been supporting and giving me the encouragement to follow my passion.

Lights, Camera, Action...

Okay, so I only have the camera and the action, but soon I will have the lights as well. I am still in the process of purchasing a lighting kit. Which to buy? I don't want the cheapest equipment, but since I am just starting this project I don't want to spend money on the top of the line equipment just yet either. We, my husband and I, have discussed it and I do believe we've found the one that's just right for me and my camera, a Sony DSLR A200. I'd love to invest in another more professional camera, but I do feel the one I have does the job perfectly. Even more so when I change the lens and such. So let's recap on what I've done so far in this endeavor. I have my camera, I have a website (www.peggycartyphotography.com), I have a price list for services and portrait packages, and I also have this blog ;o). I created my logo, which is proudly displayed on this blog. I have also chosen to make it somewhat transparent so that it can be used as my watermark for my images as well. Can we say "dual purpose?" So far so good and I look forward to posting more as I learn it.
