Phone Consultations for Photographers!

Y'all know that I do my best to answer ANY and ALL of your questions. Lately however there has been a HUGE increase in the amount of emails I've been receiving and the vast majority of them contain questions that are very complex and harder and harder to answer in a short concise email. I want to answer your questions in a way that will really serve you, and in an email, I just can't go into the amount of detail I'd like to. And to be quite frank, I have to be careful how I spend my time. . . I'm a momma first and foremost, juggling home duties, kid duties, hubby duties, church duties and then all this mad photo stuff. . . it's just out of control if I spread myself too thin. The bottom line is that email is a real time sucker that I need to find a way to cut back on. So though it literally pains me to say that I have to cut back on these types of emails, I hope you understand and respect that it is a necessity for the good of my family (and they come first!! ALWAYS!!). But don't worry, I'm not gonna leave you hanging!

They call me Annie said...

You are so brilliant. I know each person feels like their one little question is no big deal . . . but when you multiply that by 100, 200, 300--well, that's a LOT of questions. I was wondering when you were finally going to cry, "Uncle!!!"

I do like your site and your articles.
Thanks for all the advice you freely give to us.

However, I think you are selling yourself a bit on the cheap side.

"Whatever you want to talk about..."

Ladies offering those services normally knows a lot less and charges a lot more. :-)

Dear Anonymous,

Your comment has been deleted. Being mean, albeit speaking anonymously, is still mean. And mean, is not cool.

I'd gladly have paid double that for our email exchanges back and forth! Anonymous needs to get a life and a different blog to hate on.

Natalie, I think you are great and I appreciate all the help you share so freely. You have serioulsy helped me so much I can't even begin to tell how much.
