For me, Facebook has been a great way to catch up with old friends from high school, previous co-workers, extended family, and college buddies. For business, it has been a an extremely efficient way to network. Photography is my my profession, and as any business allocates a budget to advertising, it is sometimes difficult to decide where to spead the funds. Facebook ranks first as the best source for new clientele. Face Book is a very natural way for me to promote my business, because photography is a major component of Facebook. It is a great platform for me to pass along promotions, new projects, and to display my work across my social media network. It is all very powerful and persuasive. I have found it all to be much more effective compared to traditional media.
It was great to get a note from my old college friend Kim who asked if I could photograph her dad’s 60th surprise birthday party. Of course! Kim and her family picked a perfect location off the beaton path. They chose Rose’s Berry Farm in South Glastonbury. I knew the location well from my time spent in Glastonbury. Rose’s is a farm tucked away in the hills. My wife and I would have bluberry brunch on Sundays overlooking the orchards. I arrived at 4:30p, a perfect time of day during The light was soft and the reflections of the fall leaves off the water looked alive. Conditions could not be any better.
It was great to see Kim again after all these years. I am glad I had the chance to cover the event, and was wonderful to see her dad so surprised. They all are great people, and it was a pleasure working with everyone.
