Have you ever asked for help??? {Huntsville Photographer}

Nothing like putting it out there in the title. As I continue to grow as a person in personal and business life I continue to see how much knowledge is out there and how much every person you meet has to teach us something – I think that is one of the few things I like about getting older – HA!!!

As my Passion for Photography grows and the business grows I have realized that the road to success is with the HELP of others and doing it alone is not the way to go. I look back at the design business I had/have and I realized something, I had so much help from so many for that business to be successful. Yes, I had a network that was built over many years but it was all those that helped me build that business. I am grateful for every person that helped that business grow and succeed.

Today we have the added dynamic of viral marketing that is a really COOL thing! You know that it can really help you grow… I have now seen so many photographers and other business grow all due to blogs, twitter, facebook, and all ‘those’ networking tools available online. Heck, we go to our phones now to find our way or a phone number and just about anything these days. Do you remember 8-tracks or records? I know I do and how far we’ve come…

As I review my business plan, tweak it, change it and continue to ‘work it’ I realized something – ‘Hey! You could ASK for some HELP from your current followers and readers. Really? Could I really do that? or am I crazy to think that? I don’t ask for help often…but why? – Is it pride?, Is it the desire for respect?, Is it about hardwork?; I really don’t know why it is but I need to change that…don’t you think?’

I have such a passion for capturing memories and so much more with two little ones in our life’s. I can’t believe that they are growing so fast and the things/images I can not remember. The other night a friend asked me to go scrapbooking and I am SO glad I did. That maybe what got me thinking all these random thoughts. But seeing the pictures of our sons birth, reading the story my husband wrote about it, and see him grow in those images was PRICELESS.

SO, that all brings me to this – I need your help reaching out to more people (those that know me well know how hard this is for me:-))…I am asking each one of you to help me in one or more of the following ways:

1. Share this website with your friends and family – www.catchitphotography.com
2. Become a fan of M Studios Photography on Facebook – http://bit.ly/baXZNM and then suggest M Studios Photography to your friends.
3. Do you know somebody who hasn’t had a Family Portrait done? Do you know somebody with a Newborn? Do you know somebody who hasn’t professionally captured their child? – Well if you’re reading this then you know somebody who can capture those moments for them and all you need to do is share my information and site with them. – Easy right?
4. You haven’t had your family portraits made in awhile have you? Hey – book a session today – just give me a call or send me an email.
5. If you are interested in portraits but are unsure that you can afford it – well why not have a Portrait Party – just share this idea with your friends or contact me for more information. (I also have some information HERE)

So, you ask ‘What’s in it for me?’ – well, there are a couple things I can do for you:

1. For every booked and completed session that you refer to M Studios Photography (be sure your friend knows to mention your name) you will receive $25.00 towards a future session. (max. $200.00 per session).
2. If you have a business that you would like help ‘spreading’ the word about let’s talk, give me a call or send me an email.

I am so thankful for all that I have been blessed with and been able to create with an Art I love. I look forward to creating more pieces of Art as M Studios grows and allows me to give back to organizations like NILMDTS or the American Cancer Society. And you can read more about me and why I turned to photography HERE.

WOW – that was long, sorry for all the words and then next post will have some pictures
