My first comissioned work has been succesfully ordered! WOOHOO! As I am not set up for printing (or equipped to do so) I have to outsource.  I have found an amazing printer in British Columbia, Canada that I really like using!  You can see their site here: www.treasure-book.com

Also, would like to remind you to get your answers in for the Scavenger Hunt! (Details are further down in a previous Blog.)  You have until 11:59 tomorrow night! Happy Hunting!
 
    Well! I got commissioned to do my first album! From someone who is NOT friends, family, or friends of the family! A complete stranger read the article written about me in the local paper and decided to have some of her photo's preserved! The cool part is the pictures are from the 1920's! How cool is THAT!   Here is what I have to work from!
    The other thing that was requested, was that I preserve as much of the writing in the book as possible.  Thank goodness I have an amazing scanner because I was able to keep it all! I will post pictures once the album is completed and I have it in my hands! (I was given permission from the client to print a copy for myself! ) Another request was that I basically re-create the album. Blank spots and all. So, it was done. 
    If I do say so myself, I think it looks pretty amazing!

I am still hearing all the time, "what is it exactly that you do?"  And I am finding more often than not, that my words just don't do my work justice.  9 times out of 10 I have to say, "Look at this, THIS is what I do."  So, here we are, THIS is what I do!

Please check out my photographers website! She has done all our photo's right from our engagement right up to the baby and family photoshoot! Thanks Jeanette! You Rock!

Here is a site you might like to check out! I am part of a group of women who support each other with networking and business building.  We meet once a month in Port Hope.  If you have a home based business and would like to become a part of a group of women who like to have fun while learning new techniques and idea's to build their business, check out www.womenwithoutoffices.com and click on the "about joining" tab on the left hand side.  A great and unique thing about this wonderful group of women is that there are no "doubles" (if you will) of business'.  For example, I am the only photobook person in the group.  It's great as you don't feel as if you are in competition with fellow group members! You can focus on building and bettering your business! Worry free. 
So, come on over and check out these wonderful women!
