- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Not sure how to get noticed...been tossing the idea around for awhile of making a portfolio book to try and get some of my shots hung in local businesses...just haven't mustered up the nerve to do so yet.
What I hate is when people see my camera and stuff or even some of my shots and want me to do a photoshoot for them. I have done a few in the past but don't enjoy it. I can take some pretty good portraits and DO take some pretty nice portraits of my kids (no sense in paying a pro when I can do as well as the pros in my area). Because of that, people think I AM a pro and I'm not. I don't want to shoot your engagement or wedding, I don't want to photograph your kids and family, I don't want to do your senior pictures. If you find a cool bug, give me a call, other than that, leave me alone...I'm not for hire.

Sorry bout all that...seems like I get exposure often times of the wrong kind. I want people to want to buy my macros, not have me shoot portaits which is what most people want.
