4/6/06 A Good Day at The Studio.

Thursday, April 6th 2006

Well, I had a good day today. I had an appointment today with an existing client. I’ll be shooting her wedding later this year. She came into the studio today with her mother to talk about booking her bridal and engagement portrait sessions, and the first thing she said when she sat down to talk was “I drink your brand of cool-aide.” Needless to say I had the biggest smile on my face for the rest of the day. Thanks Sara.

My second appointment was immediately after my first. They had come in to order their engagement portraits, which I created last Sunday. It is the couple featured in the blog Don’t Look at Me. I have to admit that I was a bit anxious when they first came in due to a phone message that she had left earlier in the week.

The message had said that we were still on for Thursday (today), and also included a little note that the images I had placed on my site “were causing a bit of a stir.” Now, not really knowing what this meant, I just sort of filled in the blanks in my head. I had assumed that the parents of the couple had seen the images and had not approved as they are a bit on the, shall we say, hot and heavy side. Well as it turns out, the couple absolutely loved them, and “the stir” was from their friends who loved the portraits as well. It turns out that the images actually caused a spike in traffic on my site according to my traffic report.

So all in all, it was a successful day. I booked an engagement and bridal session for an existing client that is going to let me have free artistic reign of both shoots, and my newly added images to my site get to stay up.
