Happy New Year! Yeah we know that we are over 3 weeks late on this but we are still on time for other things, LOL. In any case the new year is here, meaning new things to come ahead for you in this year. One of the things that I, Michael promised myself that is […]
It’s that time of the year again! Great food, friends, family, times and memories! As we are at the twilight of the year it is a time to reflect on what we have done in the past year and how we all have grown. It is time to let go of the old, allow the new […]
Normally I would blog about something in the photography industry, however today I want to talk about some more important – business, and how to know who you’re dealing with.
