"Since starting my business, my referral base has come almost entirely from word of mouth. As I move to target a higher clientele, I still want to maintain a strong referral base. I pride myself on exceeding expectations and providing great customer service. By practicing the same customer service methods provided by Collages.net and utilizing their amazing product line and services for all my studio needs, I have been able to go above and beyond my clients expectations.

My goal is to make clients say 'wow' when they enter my studio and look at my products. Products like Collages.net's new high gloss books, Brilliant Albums, gallery wraps, and metallic prints create that wow factor. You will also find my fine art work printed on styrene in both my dining room and bedroom. One of my favorite products that I believe goes above and beyond and keeps my clients talking about my studio are the matte finish books. A 5x5 book with some of their favorite images is the perfect product for my most enthusiastic clients to always carry around my work with them. This makes it easy for them to spread the word about my photography. Other great ways to create that buzz are the amazing Premium Websites, and since Kevin Casey's Blue Ocean seminar, I have started using press printed cards for marketing. From custom thank you cards with my logo and contact information, to discount cards and vendor referral cards, I know I can get everything I need from Collages.net.

As the busy season quickly approaches in Florida, I want to make sure I am still delivering the same customer service as I do in the slow season. I still want to be able to blog immediately, edit, and post images within two weeks of a wedding. This would be impossible without the help of the amazing design services at Collages.net. I am very particular with every aspect of my business, especially with design. The design staff works closely with me to create amazing album designs in a short period of time at a very reasonable price. Instead of sitting behind the computer for hours or paying an employee, I use and trust Collages.net. This frees up time to relax, and more importantly, provides me more time to meet with vendors and network.

I love Collages.net because they are keen on helping photographers. In a few hours at the Blue Ocean seminar, I learned some of the same things that friends of mine learned at workshops that cost thousands of dollars and lasted a few days. And even though Collages.net serves over 10,000 photographers nationwide, I feel like I'm the only photographer they work with. That is the same feeling I hope to evoke in my wedding clients."
