A year ago, good buddy and GoingPro partner, Scott Bourne, did a rant on five of the most stupid things photo-related companies do to us. It’s one of my favorite posts, because of two things, the actual points he made are dead on and the sarcasm with which each point hits [...]

It’s the perfect post for a Friday morning, but as you watch the video pay close attention to all the little details. It’s those little moments of unbridled sarcasm that stole my heart! LOL

Oh, if it were only so easy. We could give all those “rockstars” who shoot weddings for $300 a couple of pills [...]

Every day there are things that happen that have become normal events, but there aren’t any words out there to describe them.

I was on the phone one morning talking with the Queen of Lighting, Bobbi Lane. About three minutes into the call we got disconnected. It was instinct, since I originated the call, to just call her [...]

I actually published this last year on Christmas Eve, but so few people saw it. So this year, I thought I’d go a few days earlier and because I’m so proud of my ability to get everything to rhyme I’m dusting it off and bringing it back. I realize I’ve got no chance to be [...]

I’m constantly amazed at the comments I get to this blog, obviously written by spammers from other countries who probably watch just enough American TV to think they understand the language.  Yesterday though, I got the best one yet.

Just trust me on this: Go get a cup of coffee and then sit back and watch Kevin Kubota, Jeff Medford and Ross Hockrow (the film-makers) in action on  this video, How to Photoshop Everyone. Not only does Kevin deliver an award-winning presentation, but pay attention to the production values Ross and Jeff brought to the [...]

Yesterday’s post, if nothing else, at least added a few chuckles to every one’s day. Let’s wrap it up today and then feel free to send me any good basic way to lose business that I’ve missed. If there are enough I’ll run them in an additional post.  Send them to Skip@mei500.com.

Give your clients lots to read! Your [...]

I know it’s snarky, but it’s the middle of the summer and it just seems appropriate to remind people how much they’re really giving up by not paying attention to some simple details in their business. So, it’s a fun post to write, but it’ll be even more fun on your end if you make it [...]

The last couple of days the posts have hit on some pretty heavy topics making it time to just lighten up. So, keeping humor in mind and since graduation season is upon us, it only seems right to share senior moments from fifteen souls who were brave enough to share a glimpse of the past. [...]
