Are you a Professional Photographer?

I'm really curious. 

What constitutes a "Full time Professional Photographer"?
Is it training?
Hours worked?
Income?
A cool, hip blog with underexposed, sun flared images?

Let me know your thoughts.

Class of 2014 - Special Savings on Sr Portraits

Who do you know that's graduating in 2014?

Now is the time to have them call us and reserve their summer session for senior pictures.

WHY?

Because sessions booked through June 15th will receive a 75% DISCOUNT on all session fees. That's pretty close to FREE for those of you keeping score.

Choose our popular indoor and out session. It's a great way to mix styles a clothing to please both parents and students.
Wanna try something different? Ask about our Secret Location. I could tell you now... but it's a secret.

Wanna earn some extra spending money this summer? Ask us about our referral program.

We are looking forward to talking to you.

Photography is a business

A nice graphic with interesting information. I'm all for new people wanting to "go pro" in the industry. Just remember a professional photographer is a business person who sells a product and a needed service. There is no prestige in the starving artist syndrome.
