Client Review- Photography Service

Today we received a tag on a post of Facebook from one of our recent clients giving us a nice review of the photography service we recently had with them. Last weekend our clients hosted a headshot party to make sure all the members of her team had professional headshots to use on and offline.

So we were so surprised to get such a nice compliment for the service they had receive.

We are always so thankful for the opportunities that are presented to us.

We also received a call from our wedding client bride, who confirmed that she received the electronic transfer of images from her wedding and how she was so pleased with the work.

I was so very thankful for the feedback.

What a great way to end our anniversary month.

Two satisfied photography clients!

Branding Session Pose Gone Wrong

Throwback Thursday!

We got together with fellow photographer and friend Bryant Andrews (Sky Love Photography) to photography some brand images in studio. We had a list of ideas for the shoot and one in particular we decided to try it was a photo turned upside down on the coach. The photo idea looked super cool in on the inspiration board.

By the the time I decide to flip upside down for the photograph things went all the way wrong. I lost my balance, Bryant didn’t say much but he knew the idea was not that great.

Here’s to say you may have a great idea for an image but not all ideas are great ones. Still try the ideas somethings may work and some may not. You will never know until you try!

My Favorite Photo of Myself

In 2017, I worked with an up and coming photographer name Jayce the Artist. I hired her to shoot birthday pictures of me with me being always behind the camera it’s weird for me to be in front of the camera. The truth of the matter is I’m actually shy. So when being photographed it helps me to pretend, act & be silly. Pretending and acting silly loosens me up and allows me to get photos captured.

This photo session is one of my favorite shoots to date. In addition to the beautiful images captured during the session she also sent a video of us behind the scenes which turned out to be the biggest surprise.

I was so overjoyed and happy.

I cannot begin to describe how I felt when I received my electronic transfer of images and behind the scenes surprise video gift.

The way I felt after receiving my deliverables from the shoot, I vowed that day to insure the clients that work with my company Kustom Kreation Photography have a chance to experience the same joy I felt when I opened my email to receive my images!

My favorite photo I had it blown up to a poster size images it’s my background image on my computer and I regularly use it as a motivational and affirmation post on my social media pages.

It’s Our Photography Anniversary!

As we celebrate our 16 years of picking up our camera and deciding to take photographs we are reminding of the beginning.

When I began to go through the history of how this all began it really amazes me on how we come to be. I remember being a little girl and always wanting to do business stuff. Whether I was playing on a cash register or had a notebook(receipt book) or a purse /briefcase full of miscellaneous papers. I always remember wanting to be in business and do business by servicing my customers. when begin to think of how all those childhood dreams came to life it really amazes me on what you think can really happen. I’m blessed to be able to do this photography and more thing for these last past years. It really has shown me what I was capable of .

Cheers to 16 years and counting!

Business Photos : The Need for Them

Very earlier on in our journey of photography we begin capturing behind the scene of events and capturing portfolio building images for vendors. I learned early on the importance of having clean crisp images for your brand and services . I also learned that good images will sell your product or service.

So I begin to capture images that I could provide to vendors (at an event) to assist them in building their brand and service. It also helped in establishing good working relationships and networking. They would pass your name to other people that were looking for a good reliable photographer.

Side Note: Look at any of your favorite brands and look how they present their products and services to you. When looking at your favorite brands you don’t see their service or products represented with dark, grainy low quality images.

For record neither should you!

Investing quality images is a must when building your business brand & service.

It’s our Anniversary! Cheers to 16 years!

Why I love Coffee Table Books

My Goal is to create and publish one day. When I first got on IG in the early days I didn’t get on to attract followers and build business, I actually joined to showcase images that I’ve captured. I looked at it as a Digital coffee table book and I did that for years. As I would grab favorite images from some of my special event and photo sessions we than went on to caption our images with one word that described the picture.

As time went on and our Instagram account shifted with a different set of goals the desire to publish a Coffee table book is one that we still have in mind. So one day soon you will see images we’ve captured over the years published in our very own Coffee Table Book

It’s Our Anniversary! Cheers to 16 years!

Second Time Around

I’m excited once again to announce that I am 50 days in on the #100daydreamchallenge second time around. I’m so happy to work on developing the habit of writing everyday. I was inspired many years ago by marketing guru Seth Godin as he writes a blog post everyday. That was a goal of mine and it wasn’t until earlier this year when Social Media Influencer Brother Ben X proposed a challenge to his followers to do something for 100 days in a row. For me that something was to write a blog post everyday! I successfully completed the #100daydreamchallenge in June and decided to start again. So here we are 50 days in second time around and I’m excited to keep this going! So I encourage you to challenge yourself to doing something (anything) for the next 100 days. See how committed you will be to the process.

Today I celebrate the halfway point of the challenge and look forward to keep going!
