Thanks Faith!

Rick, love the name ShutterCountry. We're in neighboring towns, should get together and shoot it up sometime!

would love to ... I need to get the AB-800's outside and shoot off the battery pack. How about some night shooting? It's on my "to do" list.

So how about My name which is also the name of the community I am in. Although correct spelling can be an issue. And there is one of the same name in Nebraska.

I based my name off available dot coms that matched a name that was easy enough to remember and use. I am ok enough with JW Custom Photography, as its my initials, and if my daughter ever decides its something she would want to take on, it would at least be her initials until she gets hitched.

Other than that, I am looking at rebranding, or at least going multi-brand.

Just my experience; if you choose a name for your company that incorporates some common word or short phrase it may hurt a little with clients using search engines.
I thought Winchester Images would be a great name for my business, but when searching for winchester images you get a lot of sites with pictures of rifles!!! I hope that you don't have your clients looking through tons of shutter companies before they get to you.
Good luck,
Gene

That's funny ... that what comes up the most when I first researched the name. I don't expect to get a lot of traffic from web search. I just want a website that I can direct potential customers. That is in time of course ...
