Days 19-39 (yep a little overdue)

How do I do this so often? I get caught up with life, and totally forget to post, or upload, or take pictures... 
all of the above, I'm afraid.

So, how are we all doing? I'm getting my business up and running. It's taking a lot longer than I thought. I naively thought, "just get some business cards and a website, and I'll be golden!" 

um.. nope!

There is so much more than that. Every day, I'm tweaking the site, figuring a business plan, trying out new marketing strategies.. it's not easy! But, it is fun in the meantime, and I get a huge sense of accomplishment after all is said and done.

I posted a couple "clients" in this post. One "critter client" and another "senior portrait" session in the snow! It was so. much. fun! Who'd have thought we'd trek all over the Chicago area in knee deep snow... for a photo shoot? She was awesome, and we had a blast!

Have you become a fan of my facebook page yet? I'd love for you to so you could message and give critique! I would greatly appreciate it.. here is the link! 


it should take you right there. THANK YOU in advance! You guys are the best! Comment on my blog if you have a fb page, and I'll return the favor! Have a great week, everyone!

So many awesome pictures girl! Good luck with your business... I'm slowly working on getting mine going, but really am taking it slow. I did a 6 day old baby this week {picture will go up on my blog tomorrow}

WOW! There are so many fabulous photos int his post. I LOVE the portrait of the young woman with the winter coat! It reminds me of a photo you posted last year that I just loved as well.

Thank you! Kristal, can't wait to see them! And Carrie, yes, I had one of my son from last year. This one I was thrilled about the snow falling on her. Let's just say it's a "live" version. LOL

Great shots! The one of the girl in the blue coat with the fur hood is my fave. Stunning clarity!

Good luck with the business. Great action shots and the urban textures - that close up with the hood framing her is lovely.

I've gone to posting weekly as well - life is just too busy.
