Buying Business Cards

While I’m still procrastinating to upload favorite shots from the last five sessions that I’ve done over the last two months, I thought I’d post about the websites from which to buy business cards.

I actually bought mine through WHCC and was somewhat pleased. They use digital printers (similar to ink jets), and the solid parts in my graphics didn’t appear as continuous as I had hoped. I do like the glossy full color front/back option though and pricing is great at 250 cards for $30.

Another cheap option is from VistaPrint. They offer free business cards using their designs or you can have the Premium Business Cards in full color front/back cards printed with gloss for around $30 for 250 cards (pay for initial image upload and cheaper for reprints).

A friend of mine used 48HourPrint and the cards looked fantastic! Full color back/front and gloss on back/front with pricing at 500 for $55 (price includes Aqueous Gloss Coating which looks great).

My sister, a graphic designer in Atlanta, uses Moo for printing who has fantastic quality. They’re based in the UK and offer MiniCards that are really neat! Their pricing is a bit higher than those above but the quality is amazing!

It’s Official – caseycooperphotography!

Last week, I officially became a business :: Casey Cooper Photography. I’ve had enough photo shoots lately that I’m starting to create marketing pieces, including business cards. After much feedback, I’ve uploaded the final cut below. Let me know what you think! I’ll be ordering these tomorrow night. Many thanks to my talented sister (ah design) for coming up with the logo design and concept!

Fresh Look

If any of you have visited www.caseycooperphotography.com lately, then you will notice a fresh look on the site. I’ve finished writing the html code for my website, but I still need to select photos and upload them to the pages. Either way, many thanks to my talented sister, and freelance graphic designer, Anna Hatcher. She designed the circling Cs logo and the fresh new look. Feel free to head over to her portfolio or blog for more of her wonderful art.

caseycooperPHOTOGRAPHY.com

IT IS OFFICIAL!

I now own http://www.caseycooperphotography.com/. I registered the domain last night through GoDaddy.com, which is a great site for registering domains. This is the second time that I used them. I had really wanted to register www.capturinglifecreatively.com, but a search revealed that is was already registered. I emailed the person to see if they would be interested in selling the domain when they informed me that they were not and that Capturing Life Creatively was trademarked and copyrighted. Wow! Not good. So, I have promptly removed anything and everything related to this phrase from my photography data.

Hence, the updated blog name (make sure to update your blog subscription services) and blog header. Stay tuned for my new logo and design! We should be releasing it within the next week.

Cost of Photography

I’ve been challenged this week trying to think of a pricing scheme for photographs. I have two new clients that will need me to give them a price sheet for the upcoming photo session. After much thought and deliberation, I’ve finally decided what I’ll use to start off with. Just email me if you would like to know.

A fellow local photog pointed me to a recently started photography forum, the Sweet Spot Forum, which I’ve been trying to follow on a fairly regular basis. One posting was a link to an article that explains why professional photographers charge the seemingly high prices (unless you’re one of them buying all of the equipment and software, not to mention spending hours learning how to take photos and perform touch-up in the complicated software). I thought I’d share this link since this post is being made on the day that I decided on MY price sheet. Hope you enjoy reading this and walk away with a better appreciation of photographers. I know I did after reading it (and taking up this wonderful, yet expensive, hobby).
