What's up in our neck of the woods...

There has been so much happening lately that I don't even know where to start.

Just in the past few days I found out:

1) that my favorite photo store UniquePhoto started carrying Leica cameras, which I was incredibly happy about. Now I can walk out of the house and rent Leica equipment in my own neighborhood.

2) that Lowepro decided to do Free Bag Fridays on their facebook page. All you need to do is track their Friday postings and like/comment on them to get some cool free stuff.

3) that there's such a cool thing as Eye-Fi. Eye-Fi is an SD memory card which will transfer my photos through wi-fi connection wherever I want it to go, whether it's my iPad, or computer. I got it from Amazon - that was the cheapest place - and of course I went with the 8GB Pro... Can't wait to get it and give a good test run. This will be very useful in my workflow!

More news...

4) We have a new photographer in our studio, a sweet guy who is also a pro, looking to expand his business into studio photography - we hope this will be a long lasting partnership - welcome Manny!

5) Working on creating a whole new website for Sigen Photography. While at it we also decided to work a bit more on branding. So, stick around for exciting changes.

6) Next week we'll be announcing a nice small giveaway on our Facebook fan page. It has little to do with photography, but a lot to do with passion. As many of you know, I am a big Yanni fan and this Saturday he's coming to NYC with his new (instrumental!!!) CD, which I doubt will be disappointing to all of us Yanni fans. So, at the concert I'm going to be picking up not one, but two CDs. One - for me to keep, and another - for one of you to get. All you'll need to do is go to our Facebook page, like the post about the giveaway AND comment on it! I encourage everyone to participate. Our page needs a lot more visibility and in return - you might just get this fabulous new CD! How's that for a win-win?

At this point I need to stop, there's so much work to do, and tonight I am shooting another one of Pamela Pekerman "Accessorize" press events, which are always interesting and educational. They also remind me of this TV show I used to watch as a kid - the one where everybody wins a lot of great stuff to take home... what was it's name?
Yeah.

Spring is here, old stuff falls off the wagon, great new stuff is growing - keep on walking whatever your path is! And with a smile :)
