My Photography New Year Resolutions for 2011
So I won't make this list too incredibly long, or expensive...because it needs to be accomplish-able!
-Purchase External Flash, Reflector, Hot Shoe, and Pocketwizard!)
(these purchases aren't too pricey so this should be an easy accomplishment...and a very important one!)
-Invest in a new camera
(yes I have a few specifics in mind...yes they are in the $,$$$ dollar range, but well worth the purchase)
-Decide which editing program I prefer to stick with
(Corel? Photoshop? Both have their perks...but one is definitely easier than the other!)
-BOOK MORE CLIENTS!
(word of mouth would be helpful!! ;)
-Complete page of headshots to send off
(tweak, edit, and take in advice my awesome Uncle gave me)
-Master my film camera
(Little by little I am figuring out how to shoot the photo on the best settings it can be on. That's the sacrifice you have to make w/ film though...you shoot, develop and learn)
-Redo my website
(When I made my current website, it was kind of spur of the moment; since then, I have discovered an even better website domain...woohoo!)
-Change up my logo a bit
(yes KIMAGES will stay..but maybe change up the font...add a little something extra)
-Decide and settle on a way for clients to view proofs
(disc or website...I have a few ideas up my sleeve)
-Create client proofing document check-list
(eh...I'll pass on explaining this one....this is more so for weddings)
-Speaking of weddings, SHOOT A WEDDING!
(People get married everyday...well mostly every weekend...C'mon, I don't charge an arm and a leg and your photos WILL turn out FAN-DIDDLY-TASTIC)
-Discover new outdoor shooting locations
(I don't mind the drive if it's worth the shot!)
-Buy & Create props!
(Too many times I have passed up bargain items I thought would look awesome in a photo...! And there's lots you can buy to make your own!)
-IMPROVE MY CREATIVITY
(poses, style, props, location, editing....these are all key factors!!)
That's all I can think of for now...who knows, as I cross one of these off my list, I could add another...
Happy New Year everyone, enjoy it!
Love,
Kimmy
