NEWS! NEWS!!

So some pretty cool things lately!
1.) As seen in the entry 2 before this, I got new props! They're super cool and I lovvve them!
2.) Still no business name, but I raised my prices! You probably don't want to hear that, but a lot of people kept telling me to and I figured it was time. I didn't want to charge a lot until I was more comfortable with my lighting and my camera and gained a bit more self confidence!
3.) Gonna purchase some new things...
a.) I'm looking to get a new camera (the Nikon D700). This camera will do wonders! It captures a better range of colors and tones, has AMAZING low light capability, higher megapixels, and is a full frame camera!
b.) Still need a few more things for my studio! First, a wireless trigger so that I don't have to keep my camera plugged into my lights with a huge long cord, second a remote so that I can be away from my camera and still take photos. Third, I need an actual reflector. Alas, insulation hasn't been doing that swell of a job : (
4.) Once I find a name, I'll be throwing money forward to getting a professional logo and website design. Then business cards and maybe a business license thing. YEAH!
I'm on my wayyyyyy.
5.) When people buy CDs from me, now they're going to get them in super sweet custom CD cases! I'm excited about that.
BUT DANNGGG I NEEEDDD A NAMEEE!!!

Here's my price list, and I decided to make a quick products page!

Day 17---PROPS

Tuesday night I traveled down to Ikea and spent some money on photography props!! Here is a real quick photo of what I bought!

On the left you'll see a whicker basket, it's standing upright and is very shallow and egg shaped. Less than ten bucks. The pink chair was about 15 dollars, and then I got the two stools--one green, one white---that were about $9 each. The rug on the floor is from Ikea and cost 25 whopping bucks, but is totally worth it!!
The blanket on the couch I bought today at Big Lots for $15, it's hairy and has cool swirl patterns. I have a shoot tonight and am hoping to use all but the chairs!
