I’ve been bad.
No… really bad.
I have neglected my blogging since July. Although my main excuse is that I’ve been very busy (you’ll read below why), that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be connecting with my fans more often… and better.
First, let me just tell you all that the holidays are going great. I had a nice Thanksgiving, and am looking forward to more holiday time with family and friends. My family is doing fine, and everyone is in relatively good health. The dogs are all fine, too. 🙂
We started working on a boudoir/modeling project about three months ago. We even hired a couple of models to do some work for us. The results are fantastic, but we need more samples of course. We’ll be working more on that in the coming months.
The second thing we’ve been working on is a new division called TLC Pro Executive Imaging. This will be a separate division in our company that just handles commercial photography. The objective is two-fold. First, while I love doing commercial photography, I’m so busy with portraits and weddings that I really cannot commit to the kind of schedule that is often needed in commercial work. As this is the case, we hired a new photographer who specializes in commercial photography. Her name is Kristi and she’s done some amazing work. You’ll see more from her in the next few weeks.
The third thing is our seminar and workshop series. Diana and I have created a series of workshops for intermediate to advanced photographers who need more information about getting into portraiture, seniors, babies and other areas of studio management. The entire series starts in January, and we’ll start taking registrations soon. Stay tuned for that, too. We are already so enthused about this, because I love teaching and Diana has so much to share.
Now, none of this takes away from our seniors, babies, families, or weddings. In fact, it will only draw more of MY time toward those things because I won’t have to do as much with commercial work (because that’s Kristi’s thing now), and I can focus deeply on my portrait work because I have to explain details to budding photographers and that makes my work only that much better.
I’ve included a few images of what we’re doing lately, just to give you something to look at.
I’ll be back again in a couple of days. 🙂
