Wedding Idea: Clothesline Cards
by Michelle on January 24, 2012 in Client Resources, Latest News, Weddings
At the bridal fair last week, a lot of people stopped by my booth for one thing, and it wasn’t photography. At least, not my photography. They pulled out their cell phones and took a picture of … my “clothesline.” I wasn’t the only one who did this, but I seemed to have attracted attention [...]

“Photography alone, of all the arts, seems perfected to serve the desire humans have for the moment – this very moment – to stay.” -Sam Abell I found it while I was cleaning out my desk. There, stuck in the back, were all my old prints from my first year of photography classes at the [...]

Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics
by Michelle on May 26, 2011 in Client Resources, Latest News
Every now and then, I like to add a little “About Me” to my blog. Today something got me thinking about how long I’ve been doing what I do. Sometimes it seems there’s a new crop of professional photographers every week: guys hitting midlife seeking to give up their “day job,” moms who get their [...]
Why Does Wedding Photography Cost So Much?
by Michelle on April 16, 2011 in Client Resources, Latest News, Photographer Resources
It’s been a little more than a week since I heard the news that another local wedding photographer, whose work I admired, had to close her business, and is still in arrears with several of her clients for delivery of albums. It’s my fault that I didn’t hear this sooner. The news has been out [...]
