Referrals

I received two emails today that were referrals inquiring about my family photography. How exciting! I love knowing that happy clients are telling all of their family and friends about me. This kind of business only builds itself, I am slowly finding that out. There isn't any amount of advertising or marketing that can compare to hearing about someone first-hand from somebody you trust.

On a much more sad note, I am still waiting to receive an email from B&H saying that my goods are being shipped! I logged onto their website today and received this message:

Dear Valued Customer,

What a bummer! I placed my order Wednesday evening and it looks like my lenses are not shipping out until Monday. I have a shoot planned for next Saturday, hopefully I will get them by then! I ordered the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L, and 70-200mm f/4L... my first two L glass lenses! I'm so excited! I also got a nifty hip back, a reflector, and a lens cleaning kit.
