Sometimes ya just truly gotta learn things the hard way. When I first set up shop, I had a customized website built that cost a lot of money and ended up being the most nonfunctional thing ever. So disappointing and a huge lesson. So when I found Photobiz I was so excited. Awesome customer service. Great products. Loved it.
And that should be the end of the story. But noooooooo. In the Land of Laura, it could never be so simple. About a year later I got a wild hair and decided I needed something totally different and in a small moment of insanity went with another company with pretty products but not as functional or easily customized and…uh hum…a - slight - gaping hole in the customer service department. Why you ask? Me too.
So a year and half later, here I am. Back at Photobiz. LOVING their products and feeling like I returned home to a warm house of good friends who actually sound happy when I call with questions and who are able to help me on the spot. Question? We’re here. Problem? Solved. I admit I felt like the black sheep in the family when I first called but, again, kudos to them because they didn’t treat me like it at all. I’m taking notes from their customer service. Outstanding is where it rates.
Anyway, if you want to check it out go here! Still a few things to work on like the splash page - will be creating links for the blog and online ordering again but can’t decide what pictures to accompany it. I always find that task very daunting because for someone just stumbling on your site, it’s the very first impression they get of you and if the pictures don’t hit home, they’re outta there. It’s like a one second window of opportunity to convince them they should step inside the front door of your house. Too bad the internet doesn’t come with scensory abilities or I’d light candles like I do at the shop and throw a bowl of chocolates out there….after all, who can resist chocolate? and if there is someone, I need to meet them!
Okay, and here are some shots from a recent shoot - aspiring actor in need of some new images. As you can see, he was really tough to photograph.
I admit, I totally veered from the course of the session to do some fun ones but he was cool with it.
PS - My email is down! As in, crash and burn people! So, if you emailed and I haven’t responded - so sorry. Should be up by tomorrow morning!





Woah! Amazing work Laura!
