I’ve got an itch!

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

I’ve really got the itch to get outside and shoot pictures.  We’ve had some beautifully sunny weather, but it’s been quite chilly.  The other problem is that the grass is still brown and the trees have not started to bud yet.  It’s going to be a few more weeks before things get really nice around here.  In the mean time, I’ll have to take pictures in the house!  It’s not such a bad thing really, but gets boring!

The website launch was very successful!  I’ve received 3 inquiries about doing sessions.  One was from an old chum who lives in BC now but is visiting Ontario in August.  The other is from a high school friend that has a baby only a week younger than my son, and the third was from a complete stranger.  I’m excited about these and hope to have a busy summer!

My 52 week project went down the tubes.  I tried, I really did, but between the kids getting sick, myself getting sick 3 times this year already and my oldest starting preschool up again, it’s been hard to find time to take pictures, never mind processing them!  I did manage to snap these last week on my son’s 3rd month birthday:

Going through some older files, I came across this funny one and had to share! I think my son really likes natural light!

The other day I asked my daughter what she wants to be when she grows up, and she said “A photographer!” She truly is a mommy’s girl!

My new website went live as of 6 pm EDT today, and everything went off without a glitch! I’m very happy to finally have a proper website to display my work instead of using the Flickr website as my portfolio!

Please take a moment to view my new website! I’d love to hear what you think about it!

Almost there!

Changes are coming!

Within the next two weeks, I will be re-launching my website with a whole new look!  I’m very excited about this as it has been a long time coming for me!  It’s going to be beautiful, naturally!

ETA More information….

It was pretty late last night when I decided to go ahead with the website so I didn’t provide a lot of information about it.  It’s going to be a fully integreated flash website with music capability, a shopping cart system, client mini-sites and a few other features.  I had to make the decision whether to buy the template outright or go with the hosting plan.  I decided to do the monthly hosting plan for now until I can purchase the template.  I should’ve done this a year ago really, but I’m glad I waited because the template I chose was not available last year.

I’m waiting for my welcome email so I can start getting things set up.  This is a big step for me as I’ve been battling with the website (my own internal battle that is) for a year now!
