ShootQ is by far the best system to use for contracts, invoices, and everything I need to keep my business organized!

also, I really like fans :) check out my facebook page here
Do you need help right now?
I may need more photographers this year, but I hire photographers that, want to work for me to help my business not to learn from me and most importantly, know how to work their camera- I also prefer Canon users :) Please DO NOT contact me if you are not available 95% of Saturdays.
If you are interested in working for me, please send me a direct e-mail (not through the contact form) [SweetCarolinePhoto@gmail.com] with a complete list of gear, experience, and a link to a website/portfolio.
I do my best to at least respond to everyone but sometimes I’m just too darn busy.
What’s your workflow like?
Lightroom 3 for the most part for standard edits and TRA for all the premium edits for my blog, read more about them here.
What education do you have?
I am a nerd. I started my sophomore year of high school, I graduated in 3 years then went to Texas State University to receive a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts for photography, of which I received in 3.5 years. I loved school and it put me miles ahead of most people trying to start a photography business.
More info on how I got started into weddings gigs at this blog post.

How do you light your images?
I’m pretty consistent, I use off-camera flash a lot because it’s rare that the lighting is juuuust right…. but sometimes it is and it’s awesome. I do pretty standard stuff with the flash for the most part, usually just to fill some times I get a little more creative during receptions, the 135 lens flare with back lighting is pretty awesome.
What kind of website do you have?
Scroll down to the bottom for a link. It’s wordpress with a prophoto blog theme, customized to my liking.
Can I e-mail you?
Sure, but at the high risk of me being too busy to respond. If you’d like to talk shop, take me out to lunch and I’ll answer what you’d like to know.
If you’d just like to ask me a question I’m more likely to answer here.
