Another hectic day today but I'm really enjoying the variety that my photography business is allowing me to have in my everyday life. I had an appointment with a nursery just outside of Barnsley who are keen to use me to take relaxed photographs of the children. It was such a positive meeting and I came away feeling really excited about this contact and the opportunities which it could lead to. They were excited about the photos I showed them and the relaxed/reportage style of my photography so I'm looking forward to working with them in the next few months. The contact with the nursery came from one of my business contacts at BNI so it's great to see the referrals working already.
After the meeting I went to Ikea...for work!! I had to buy some more frames for my images so that they can go on the wall in the bar. I had managed to smash one during the week so wasn't too impressed with myself but I managed to get enough frames for the prints that I'm wanting displayed. When I got home I spent a while putting the prints into the frames and it feels amazing to see them presented like that. Seeing photos that go from my camera to the computer to enlargements in frames is such an amazing feeling! The photo I took today is of two prints, one of my sister Fiona and one of a little girl from a toddler group (Fiona's the one without the dummy although that would have been a typical photo of her when she was little!). I keep having to pinch myself that these are my photos..framed and ready to go!
I also got another wedding booking tonight which is great..brings the total of weddings to 5 this year and it's only February! I went to the pub with some friends and bumped into a friend who used to teach at Aston with me. She's getting married at the end of March and had mentioned back in July that she would have loved me to take the photos but they'd just booked a photographer! Anyway she's cancelled the other photographer because she's so impressed with my photography and style and wants me to photograph her wedding! So I was booked over a pint in the pub..I can get used to this! It's all very exciting!
