My part-time job keeps me busy enough to go full-time, but the budget just isn't there. Am hoping the photo work will rebound to fill the gaps in my time and paycheck a little better.

How about traffic to your website?
For me it seems like people aren't even looking right now.

That's why I can't be a rock star wedding photographer. I'm not a glitta kinda girl. I think it could be a good angle, Holly.

lol. Insane bridal salon will really dress you pretty for your wedding day - promise. That's like going to a salon and choosing the chick with the 1/2 shaved head and a comb stuck on the other side.

And I only like glitter secretly. In real life I wear solid black and admit no liking to glittery things or pink ponies!

Back to topic, business seems to be down, but not out. You just have to get more pro-active and make people come to you.

Or you could paint your toes purple and count your hair!!

Poor focus behind the camera creates as many bad photos as poor focus through the camera!
