Nice way to start a week!


Wow! What a show at the PMA in Orlando. I could only spend 6 hours there and only got to see maybe a third of the show. More photographer toys, products, services, and techno stuff than you can imagine! Attention all you consumers...there are some fantastic things hitting the market, so hold on!
One of the highlights was to go to the "SimplePhoto Website" booth and meet "the gang". This is the company that I set up my photo website with. It is a great bargin and very easy to use. Eric,thanks for the hospitality! Eric and his staff had a nice get-together at the Hard Rock Cafe in Orlando's "City Walk" at Universal Studio theme park. Nice touch having the models show up! There will be photos on the SimplePhoto.com website soon I'm sure! ;}
One of the models was Allison. A real beauty and a great outgoing personality. I hope you get to see her on my website one day soon!
I have been asked about the Motorcycle gals on my site in the portfolio/glamour section. These great ladies are are local Tampa Bay women who posed for a calendar I photographed. It was called, USA Babes and Bikes. I hope to do another session this year but instead of the calendar, I want to produce a coffee table book. Local, over 21 ladies, interested in modeling can contact me for details.

It's been a busy week. I hooked up with a great website company called "SimplePhoto.com". These are photographers running a website hosting company for photographers. Eric and his staff have been fantastic in their service. So, with some fanfare, I launched my first website at www.mwsphoto.com I'm looking forward to the e-commerce challenge. This is all part of the "Master Plan". I have been doing pro-work for a very long time, however, it has always been a side job. It looks like this might be the year that I retire from my "real job" and do the job that I love...taking photographs!
Monday I will be heading over to Orlando and the PMA convention. Talk about a toy store for the photographer! Major photo overload.
