Photography as Communication - It is a great conversation
I try to always say glass half full instead of half empty and stay as positive as I can.My little business:I am a sole proprietor dba A Bears Second Chance = I will stay strong and ever persistent, and be the driven individual that I am , and simply run my little business = Sell my photos/products ,gain some better marketing ideas/skills with some advice , and continue my learning experiences in regard to running my little business - I will also continue to learn from the bears that have so graciously let me a part of their lives. I feel beyond blessed to have witnessed orphaned bear cubs grow and develop over the years , and look forward to the future journey of doing so. I have certainly gained knowledge and insight into the mystery of growing cubs as they develop and grow into bears ; being a promising note - for giving others the facts rather than misconceptions. REAL
Sharing Stories and Tying Business into the process - makes good sense
I love talking about the very bears that have given me so much insight - it welcomes people to listen intently for when I tell their story ,and so many out there really like that part of it = it gives them more incentive to want to buy a photo from me, and a greater understanding about bears = I not only sell people a beautiful photo , but there is a story behind each one - as I watched these cubs grow = giving each my undivided attention,and I, gotta say - there is so much more that goes along with it all , and many have said - that I am so passionate about the bears that I call mine. My knowledge base is intense = Life experiences : good bad /or indifferent ;People love hearing my stories that I never waiver from the Truth.
I am real happy to say - that I am now just starting - to also make handmade rustic frames for my photos - believing that will also be a selling point too!
I am often repetitive with my writings - because for so many years I have seen repetitive behavioral patterns with the bears I photograph,care for and observe , and I suppose it is a good thing - That I do absorb it all, and it never goes away in my thought process - each story stays vivid as it did when I had witnessed it - for the most part - take Note: I have had 67 bears over the years to date thus far - so I may have to do a bit of back checking in my notes & Data to clarify from time to time :o)
