Photo of the week | March 28 2009


So I have been going back and forth about the “Photo of the week”. The more I read and listen to people about business, the more I hear that blogs and sites should only be about a specific thing. So in my case the blog and the site should only be about one thing, a narrow focus into photography, such as wedding photography. So I took a break from the photo of the week, and was concentrating on focusing 100% of my thoughts on wedding photography. But the more I think about it, the more I really love the photo of the week. I love having something to share each week, and I love having something different to do and share… So I think I am going to keep the photo of the week going. I am going to try and make this blog a bit diverse, since I love to shoot a wide range of subjects. I think it will show a larger spectrum of what I do. Our main site will be a bit more focused, but here on the blog, I am going to roam a little, post things I love, things I am working on… Including the “Photo of the week…” So with all that being said, here is this weeks photo:

This weeks shot comes from a shoot that Simon and I did last weekend with Emmanuel. We wandered the streets of Milwaukee and created some nice images. I am currently editing the shoot, so look out for some more of Emmanuel soon…

Let me know what you think about the “Photo of the week” I would be interested to hear what people thought? Should I keep it up?

    I think it shows your range. If I were looking for a photographer, seeing range would be a positive, for me. I think you should keep doing it.

    Jake,

    I missed your Photo of the Week last week and am glad you went back to doing what you want. I love the stuff you’re doing; thanks for sharing.

    Absolutely keep it! I think that your blog would STILL be about one thing – your passion. Looking forward to more PoW and anything else you post – photos or writing, because you also have good thoughts (i.e. thread about experimentation on your blog and Flickr).

    What up Alt. Love the new avatar, I haven’t seen that one before… Thanks for the encouragement. I think for sure I am going to keep this going. Looking forward to working with you on the Fiction Fridays on your blog. Totally cool. Let me know if you have any ideas you need me to shoot specifically for.

    Thanks Nicole. The more I think about it the more I think I should do what my heart and mind thinks, and not what someone else says I should do, you know? I think the more I can post something from me, something I am really passionate about, the more people will see it, and see that I have a wide range and can adapt to different situations?
