    Senior Portraits - the things you do when you're an Uncle

    Nicely done, Jake. Portrait work is difficult, but rewarding. Difficult because sites like Pinterest put ideas in client's heads that aren't always good. They see something online and think, "Oh I like that, I want to do that!" And it usually involves chairs in the weeds or some crazy homemade...

    My logo

    2nd one is much better for sure. 2 fonts is fine, but 3 is too much. If the vehicle is going to be a focal point (that pun never gets old) of your business, have you considered incorporating it into your logo? A little Jeep going up the side of a mountain for example.

    Starting a serie - first image

    What is the goal of this project? What is the message you are trying to convey? This isn't a shot at you, @wud, so don't take it that way. I'm just highly critical of project-type work. What I see is a couple who looks pissed off at having their picture taken. The message I see here is, "we've...

    Facebook Marketing: A Case Study

    The past few years, I have run a $99 special for HS Seniors that runs the entire month of August. I don't do many price slashing promos, but this one has worked well for me. Last year, I even did a session giveaway for an underprivileged teen that not only made me feel good, it generated even...

    WordPress Photography Themes

    Thought I'd start a place to share some cool WordPress themes that would be great for a photography website. Stumbled across Photex from Themes Kingdom today, and while I'm not easily impressed, this one is pretty darn good. It's clean, mobile responsive, and has a nifty home page that you can...

    Fuji x100s

    I've been accessorizing.... As mentioned in my original post, I bought a cheap aftermarket neck strap. The stock strap seemed pretty decent, so I started using it instead. It's above average for an included strap, but leather + bare neck + hot day = uncomfortable. The El Cheapo I bought didn't...

    Centered on Centering?

    Just personal opinion, I think it would look stunning in B&W with a black matte:

    Cheat Sheet for Amateurs

    You'll get the hang of it eventually. After awhile, this will all be second nature. I used to have problems with this as well, and then I found the Sunny 16 Rule...going off of your makeshift chart, I think you could benefit from it as well: Sunny 16 Rule

    Fuji x100s

    Got the 50mm teleconverter today... It will be nice to be able to put some distance between myself and the subjects, but I don't like how this thing completely changes the low key profile of the camera. There's an adapter ring on the built-in lens that has to be removed, and it's very thin. It...
