With all of the rain we’ve been getting this May (along with the threat of massive flooding) it’s not a surprise that many brides are probably having to make arrangements and plans for a rainy wedding day. When it might not be the most ideal conditions for an al fresco dinner reception or even for portraits, it can still easily be worked around in a beautiful a tasteful way.

  Have you ever found yourself pushing photographs into Dropbox or emailing yourself images just so you can access them on your phone for Instagram posts? Do you get frustrated with having to keep a large scrolling file of saved photographs just for Instagram use, when you could be using that space on your phone […]

Today’s quick tutorial will show you exactly how to add questions to Facebook Group requests. Doing this will help you vet those who are trying to access the content you’re sharing, and will help you weed out any bots or people with malicious intent. Facebook recently made this feature available to use a little more than 6 months ago, so I’m sure you’ve seen it in use already. But you might be having some issues figuring out how to do this yourself. Let me show you how!

Last month I joined a group of women online who wanted to make a change to their eating habits. There were some pros and cons for me with this new way of eating and I’ll admit, I fell off the wagon pretty quickly after my wallet started screaming for mercy. However, there is one really great thing I picked up from that group and I’ve added to daily morning routine. I’d like to share this with you today in hopes that it might be something you fall in love with, too.

If you’ve ever attempted to photograph your own flatlay images for branded photographs to share on your Instagram page, Facebook account, or even your website you’re probably aware that there are many different options for you as far as your background choices go. I blogged about different background options not too long ago. However, with the change of times comes new ideas and fresh ways to photograph your client’s bridal details, invitation suite, and yes – even your Instagram images! 

If you’re just getting into the industry or want to learn what it’s like to be a full time wedding photographer; or if you’re a wedding photographer who just doesn’t want the demand of editing and booking his/her own weddings; or if you’re a professional photographer looking to subsidize your photography business income – then maybe you want to consider becoming a second shooter.

Unless you’re an avid LinkedIn user, you probably have never heard of Pulse. In fact, only recently has this been something I’ve learned of myself. You see, I’m constantly trying to learn more about social media optimization in order to boost my ranking with SERP’s (search engine results pages). And during one of my recent […]

Last year I was constantly fighting with papers. I would print out my client’s questionnaire (which, by the way was about 15 pages long) as well as their timeline (add 2-3 more pages) and in addition to all of my photography gear it would just ultimately cause me to feel like I was fumbling with a bunch of junk. I felt like I didn’t look organized to my couples or their guests. I felt like I was constantly trying to find clothes that had pockets deep enough to hold a small book of folded paperwork. It was just too much to handle.

There are so many different areas where you can optimize your YouTube channels, and each and every location is just as important as the one before and after it. If you can find a location to share the purpose of your channel, what you’re sharing, outbound links (website, social media, opt-in freebies, etc) then I would definitely suggest using it!
