Happy New Year!
I hope everybody is having a wonderful New Year, staying safe and having a great time, too. We want to thank you all for all the fun times and amazing images over the past year.
This was our first year in the studio and we have used it right up. We have been using it so much that we are already starting to think about getting a bigger space. LOL. When we first came here we didn’t realize that we were going to accumulate such a large inventory of props and costumes. Our commercial photography venture has really taken off and we’re going to need to upgrade our facilities to match our business model. It’s really crazy how the more successful you get, the more you need. It just never ends. Matt and I have a running joke. We look at each other WAAAAAY too often and say “you know what we need?” Then we both have to laugh. I don’t know when we are actually going to be upgrading but it is closer than we first expected, for sure.
This was a big learning year for us. We have found a couple of sticky points to this business and have been working hard to work out some solutions to them. One of the most important was the speed which we could get photos back to models. We admit it, we were glacially slow. Please accept our apology if you were one of the models who had to wait so long. We have changed our process and now models should be getting disks of fully edited images in 2 weeks or less.
We are also streamlining our casting call process. We are going to be doing a LOT more themed shoots and we should be contacting you guys with a lot of fun new ideas soon. Also, if you have an idea for us, let us know. We are always looking for something new. If you haven’t yet, make sure you sign up for our casting call mailing list so you can be the first to know about the new opportunities. It is my goal to have at least 2 but hopefully 3 themed shoots a week so stay tuned!
For the PI Portrait clients, dont worry, we’re still here. I still love babies, kiddos and the whole fam! We’d never leave you guys out in the cold. (unless you insist that’s where you want your picture taken, ha ha) We have new things like digital downloads and an easier shopping cart. We are still comitted to capturing all the best moments of you and your families. I would like to further transition from posed formal portraiture to a more environmental, in-the-moment style. To me, families are dynamic, interactive units and I prefer to capture them that way preserving memories and moments rather than just recording what people look like from year to year. Most of my clients have truly embraced this aspect of my style learning to actually enjoy themselves at a photo shoot! Imagine that. 
So, a big shout out to all our friends of Syracuse Modeling and Picture Infinity Portraits!! HAPPY NEW YEAR. Good luck and let’s make 2009 the best year yet, for ALL of us!!
