Can we talk about social media for a sec?
Running a small business sometimes feels like having to be a jack of all trades to keep things functioning like a well oiled machine. One thing that has become especially difficult the past couple years is balancing the ever changing nature that is social media. Today, I was informed by a fellow photographer that the platform you're reading this post on is now putting a PAYWALL in place limiting creators, businesses and photographers to sharing TWO LINKS a month unless they pay this platform $40 a month. This all for a poorly functioning social media platform that often takes YEARS to correct known issues that cause us to lose time and space on the feeds of people who have already told the platform they WANT to see our work in their timelines.
That's why direct support from all of you means SO much to us. Now more than ever, honestly.
When you bookmark our website, join our mailing lists, and engage with our posts it helps push our work higher in the algorithm and bolsters our SEO so you AND the people you love can see my work and can choose if they'd love to be documented by me in the future!
Anyway, thanks always for valuing my business, for valuing HUMAN CONNECTION and for supporting local art and passion. You all make navigating this and all the hard work completely worth it!
(PS- If you want on our mailing list, let me know and I'll send the link your way so I don't waste one of my two links on this post!)
