GOALS

October 2, 2010. 

That was my very first session after I made the decision to make a go at this photography thing.  My little friend Gary, helped me decide that I really did want to do portrait type sessions, and not just parties and weddings every now and then. 

Since the decision, I have made a Facebook fan page, and it currently has jumped to 214 likes from just 176 two days ago!  I actually realized that people were not seeing my posts from LasSana Photography aka Lena Messana Photography on my wall like I originally thought.  So I have to make a post from my actual site for it to pop up so people can become fans!  Thank you Jessica of AJ NICK PHOTOGRPAHY” for helping me realize that, and for showing others my page!  Us photographers have to work together, not against each other!  (Something Jasmine* taught me).  Now, I am working hard a few nights a week to put the site out there. 

I have a few goals that I have set in place as well during this time, that by the end of 2011 I hope to have accomplished.  Posting them here makes it seem real.  Now I have something to prove, if it is only for myself. 

*Set up a Facebook fan page – CHECK!

*Set up a price list – CHECK!

*Switch from Nikon to Canon – CHECK! (Although I kept my D40x and the Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 yummy lens)

*Get a logo – CHECK!  (Thank you Mike!!!!)

*Set up a website – still working on this one.  It is so hard to choose which way to go!

*Obtain new lenses:

 -50mm f/1.4 – COMING SOON!

 -24-70MM F/2.8L

 -I would also like to have a wide lens… undecided at this point.

*UPGRADE to Full Frame with the 5D MarkII  (Hopefully by Christmas), keeping my lovely 7D as my backup and hanging with family camera. 

And there ya’ll have it!  The only thing that was not on the agenda was the business name.  I am not sure if everyone saw the change!  I am trying to find a way to incorporate that into my Facebook page, as it is telling me Lena Messana Photography is it!  So if LasSana Photography pops up…that would be me!

And for those of you that did not get to see this adorable little one – here is a sneak peek!
