Portrait of my friend’s daughter. It was hard to get her to stay in the chair. Super glue perhaps next time?

Technical Ramblings: Two AlienBee B800s shot at a white seams paper background. One AlienBee B800 in a large soft box camera left. Post work done in Photoshop with Totally Rad Actions; Prettyizer, Oh Snap!, Ying/Yang to light white foreground.

New website is now live!

I have officially released my new website for the portrait and event side of my business. Check it out at:

www.markmortensen.com

The new site is a BluDomain Adobe Flash product I purchase about a month ago. Figured it was time to get one of those fancy Flash sites for my photography business instead of just the blog. I will be posting a review of my experience with Blu and their products in the near future.  Overall, Blu’s products are good, however, their customer support and site admin tools could use some work.

What’s the future of the blog, you ask? My plan is to start transforming it into a blog about my photography business.  Essentially a place to share the steps I’ve been taking to startup my business and to eventually go pro.  One thing I like to do is educate others on photography and the business.  I’ve had some ideas for the tag line of the blog:

- From noisy cubicle to digital noise

- From IT to ISO

- From programming to postprocessing: My path to pro

- Path to pro

I’d love to hear what you’d think would be a good tag line.  So drop a comment!  Of course one of the first things I need to figure out is how to stop all the SPAM I get in my blog comments.  Uggh.  Don’t people have better things to do with their time?
