Three Bars
..in with the New Year. I began this blog earlier in the year to share archives of photos that had been sitting on my hard drive. I was able to accomplish about 1% of that goal (not a bad start!). I got a little sidetracked as I delved into book publishing (see previous few posts) and keeping our companies’ blog up to date (www.aboveitall.wordpress.com). So as we head into 2009, I need to reinvigorate or reevaluate my initial goal of creating an archive of personal work. The plan will be to bring new work as it is created, reveal past work as it goes through my updated workflow and continue to share accomplishments in the commercial world.
It may be difficult to keep this blog as a pure archive as this year holds new challenges and commitments including the desire to continue producing photography books and our company’s upcoming show at the Nashville Airport (coming June 2009). As our company’s role in the construction market continues to grow, we also face challenges as the construction market has seen a slow down with speculation and hope being the biggest motivator and topic of discussion.
One goal within the realm of our commercial work is to attract more assignments with creative goals and clients. Whether this is within the construction industry or with new clients in creative industries, we are committed to the same mission – high quality custom photography. To attract the opportunities, we have also been very involved this year in establishing an online presence to present our talents. This includes (but is not limited to) updating our web site, maintianing the blog, getting the stock site more under control, driving traffic to the bookstore and continuing to develop our email and direct marketing. So, not a lot of time to reminisce on old photos!
I will leave with one new posting, some photos I took today (first of the new year!) while Rodger and I were visiting a renovation project by Global Outreach Development. It’s an old Middle School in Hermitage where this world-wide and world-helping organization plans to have their “home base”. They are still in demo phase so the school has many interesting juxtapositions, along with wonderful light and construction imagery.
Cheers to all and Best Wishes in 2009!
