I would hire you with just one of those shots...something to think about. but in all honesty I think in your area, culture, etc, a card like this will work great. your work is sooooo, so, so solid! I love it! and you guys are pretty cool too. i hope you book a ton at your show!

Aww, thanks Scott! Yeah, we have to really make it clear down here that if you hire us, you won't be getting ANYTHING like your mother got. Sometimes they see one image and think, "Oh, that's pretty... I'd like one of those... along with other traditional shots". And I'm really trying to make a stand this season. We'll see if it works!

Your work is excellent and these cards convey it well. Ever thought of changing "Portraiture by Melanie"
to Unblinkable

Thanks!

We're too established to change our name now. But had I thought to do it a few years ago, I would have for sure.

Very nice design Mel. Usually people go overboard with images, but the layout is well placed and a great selection of images. I don't get lost

Hey, not to highjack the thread but may I ask how/where you plan on getting those mass produced at? Internet or local? I am looking into this for an expo as well.

i'm struck by the words you chose to describe your business - they totally nail your style!

and knowing your location, these are really going to score big.

I use the 5.5x8.5 postcards with UV coating on both sides. POPS!

And thank you, K, about the words!!! We sat for a while and really thought through was emotions the images evoked. I had a couple that Jeff nixed because they were reminiscent of traditional style descriptions. It was a headache!

Just a small thought, Melanie.

On the back, can you replace "Two Shooters" with something else? I mean, WE all know what kind of shooters you're talking about. But, maybe the client would like to see "Two Photographers".

Otherwise, it's gorgeous. Best of luck to you, you're going to pull 'em in...

Thanks for the thoughts. I had photographers there to begin with, but it made the line too long, and I was trying to avoid a third line and reducing the size of the text.
