New Years Resolutions

Ha!  Soooooo....Apparently it's been about a year since I last posted a blog.  So much for sticking to it.  Again I will try this year to keep up with it.  Without boring the internet with the details, I'm in a much better place than I was this time last year so hopefully I'll stick with it.

I'm not usually a fan of New Years resolutions.  My thinking is if you want to change something then do it.  Just because it's January 1st shouldn't matter.  And to somewhat justify my thinking on this, I've been thinking of my resolution for quite some time.  I'm determined to get my photography "business" to the next level....or any level for that matter.  This past year I've had two paying clients and a few friends I did shoots for.  My goals this year is to get my website up and looking official, and to become more comfortable shooting with models.  Basically to get my name out there to more than just friends and acquaintances of friends.

To this end I have created The Plan.  I intend to get my website up and fully launched by the end of the January.  I have one shoot already scheduled with a model I've never met, and intend to schedule more.  And I'm going to start networking with other photographers to help me grow my business.  Using more social media through blogs, Facebook, Twitter, Google + etc.

So that's my New Years resolution, although I've been thinking about it since before New Years so don't consider it a New Years resolution...here's a picture of a cute dog to distract you.

  1. I agree with your point about just doing it...but of course, this year I've let the start of a new year be my motivation.

    I've been exercising a bunch and writing book 5 in the Henry Wood series every day. I'm pumped.

    I look forward to your site.
