Friend, Brides, and country men… lend me your ear. that was so bad. Ok, gang heres what we need.  Evansville bride guide wants to hear your wedding stories.  Tell future brides about your wedding.. what you did… what you’d do different… or just share a story.  Tell us about your vendors… specially your favorite photographer. (hint..hint). Go give feed back on your vendors.  This isa great resource for brides to find vendors for their wedding, so help them out.

I got a phone call from the Rietz Home just before I felt for Nashville about being a prefered vendor with them.  They had a small open house this past Sunday and I was one of three photographers there.  We didnt have a huge turn out but I got a chance to meet vendors that Ive worked with before but never got to meet in person.  I usually just get to see the DJs at most weddings so it was a nice day and made some more friends.  This year is going to be a great year.





Well we’re 3 weeks into the year and Im already behind on my blogging.  Not alot’s happened yet really.  I went to Nashville last week for the Imaging USA convention.  I had a blast but it really made me ready for Vegas… like I need any help getting hyped for Vegas. I didnt take alot of images at the convention just cause it was so hectic. I spent most of my time visiting with old friends and making new ones.  So my next big trip will be to Vegas. My plans are to drive out this year, I will hopfully have some great images from that trip.

Mad Mimi Email Marketing

If anyone is looking for an easy and inexpensive way to send out a nice e-newsletter; I suggest Madmimi.  I’ve looked at other e newsletter services and none are as easy to use as this.  With bridalshow season upon us, this is a great way for you all to send out a beautifully branded newsletter.  You can send out an email to 100 people for free. If your like me and you dont send out a newsletter very often that’s just the right price. If you need to upgrade to send out to more people the prices are very reasonable plus you can delete or export the names in your list and downgrade at the end of the month.  This is perfect for those of us with small businesses.  You can use the link above to sign up and look it over. Hope you find Madmimi as useful as I have.





OK so it wasn’t exactly Christmas.. it was more like Jan 2. Some friends and I went down to Nashville last weekend to see the Opryland Hotel all decorated for Christmas.  I had always heard it was something really neat to see and it didnt disappoint. They have my theory on Christmas decor… do it big or dont do it at all.  Next year Ill be taking my good camera and shooting, but these arnt bad for a point and shoot.

Enjoy the photos, Im heading out the door back to Nashville… this time for a photo convention.
