Final Project: Balance

        For my final project i chose to photograph balance. i enjoy the challenge of finding things center of gravity and i could take pictures of things that are in balance for that one split second. The photos themselves may not be that interesting, but each and every one had work put into it just to set up of the photo. then i had to snap the shot before it all fell down

Networking Project

Hi Makena,

I have had a photography business since 1990, I took classes at Cabrillo College and the Academy of Art in San Francisco, but most of what I know is from experimenting and doing it.

I find clients from word of mouth, being on the preferred vendor list for different wedding locations, being on facebook, wedding wire, yelp and other social media sites.

Keeping up the the current advances is difficult and expensive but I like a challenge and it keeps the work fresh.

Good luck to you,

Susan

Dear Susan,

I am a senior at Santa Cruz High School and my teacher has sent me on the hunt to get information from professional photographers. If you get the time I'd love for you to answer a few questions. 

I was wondering how you got your training and where you went to school? 

How long have you been in the field of photography? 

How do you find clients? 

How do you keep up on all the newest technology in the photography world? 

I look forward to your insight

Sincerely,

Makena Brouwer
