blogs of photogs

I’ve been making these necklaces/pendants and bag tags/keyrings for clients and wondered if other photographers would buy them for their clients. A bit about them: they are each handmade with two pieces of hand cut glass, photo is placed between the two pieces of glass, which I then wrap in copper foil tape, burnish smooth,  then they are soldered shut with lead free silver solder.

They are each unique and no two pieces are exactly alike, due to the handmade quality. I wanted to gauge interest in them and would appreciate if you leave a comment as to if you’d sell them (or gift) to your clients, and what price range you could see paying for them.

I’ll do a drawing for a free pendant from amongst all those who leave comments as requested within the next week. Thanks!

The Captured Life photography blog (blog is here) works out of both metro DC and Atlanta, (according to their website). The blog features a great mix of clients, from newborns and babies, to adorable toddlers and children, with some maternity, high school seniors and wedding/engagement mixed in. I know my readers will enjoy the beautiful range of work!

I have to admit, part of the reason I’m featuring The Captured Life is because it was so refreshing to see a little color and diversity in their clientele, after seeing dozens and dozens of blogs that have very little diversity. I welcome submissions from photographers who feature anything different, whether it is a gorgeous mix of lovely skin tones like today’s feature in Tosha’s blog, or different locations, styles or whatever. Email link is up top on the site.

Also, unrelated, I’d like to apologize for the infrequency of my posting. This spring has been insanely busy for me, and I can’t even keep up with my own photography blog-site, I have many sneak peeks I never even got to feature over there. I will do my best to feature 1-2 new sites a week on blogs of photogs, so if I slack, shoot me an email or prod me with a comment. It is good to know if anyone is out there reading and keeping me going. Have a wonderful spring Saturday everyone! Thanks!

Jerry Yoon Phototography consists of Jerry & Ingrid who photograph amazing weddings out of the San Francisco Bay area as well as many destination weddings, and Aubrey & Blake their newish associate photographers. The artistry in their work is amazing and their polished and inspiring take on new shots/angles/compositions is really terrific. I found myself looking way back in their blog, all the way to September of ‘08  (here) where I just loved this engagement session sneak peek. Such a great slice of life and so FUN! Definitely one of the more inspiring wedding blogs out there for me.

Enjoy!

Erin, of E. Tyler Photography in Fort Collins, CO, has beautiful portrait work on her blog/site, (here). After looking nearly everyday at dozens of  portrait blogs, I really loved seeing her work shooting theatre productions. Her work is just amazing, and I especially loved the Paragon bus stop shots… make sure you check them out. Erin also has a great headshot FAQ that I may ask her if I can adapt and borrow from! Would save me tons of Q&A time via email.

~Enjoy!

It feels like a good morning to break the rules, so thought I’d feature a photographer who doesn’t have a true blog, so to speak. Adam Hilton, who photographs weddings out of Johannesburg, South Africa, has great work on his site. You can view the main site here, but I’d also recommend the recent weddings here, where they are almost in blog/sneak peek format with several photos from many recent weddings. Adam features some lovely detail shots from each wedding as well as having a great eye for beautiful and interesting backdrops to highlight his clients portraits.

~Enjoy!
