Just one of those things that is incredibly mundane for most people, but incredibly exciting for me. I received my new business cards in the mail and couldn’t be happier with them. They have foil printing, which you can’t really appreciate by looking at a computer screen. But the logo and the squares are glittery...

Sonialena Photography Joins the Cloud
I’ve finally finished setting up my online client access system. Now clients can electronically sign their contracts and make payments online, all from their personalized client access page. I’m using a web-based studio management system, rather than software that runs from my computer. And I’m looking for even more ways to join “the cloud.”
A few...
New Facebook Page
I’ve finally created a page for Sonialena Photography on Facebook. I’ve had a personal page on Facebook for quite some time but did not want to mix my personal and opiniated rantings with the photographic work I do. The Facebook page has nearly all of the photos I’ve posted here on the blog.
I’m also trying...
New Logo – Third Time’s a Charm?
I would make a terrible interior designer – first painting the walls white, then dark gray, then bright yellow. But it’s so much fun changing the colors of my website!
I have experimented with different looks and color combinations, but I know this one is going to be it for a while. I love yellow and...
New Site Colors and Logo

I am still working on redesigning my website so that...
I Say Letter, You Say Parcel
I always thought that if something was in an envelope, it was a letter. If it was in a box, it was a parcel.
But no . . . apparently that’s not the case.
I mail CD’s of photographs to my clients. I place the CD in a cardboard sleeve, write a letter full of...
Self-Published Photography Books
I’ve been hunting around the internet looking for companies that produce albums for photographers. So far I’ve looked at materials from AsukaBook, Zookbinders, and Renaissance. All look promising. I’m mostly interested in albums that are like books, rather than more traditional matted or mounted styles, where actual prints are in the album.
Which...
I Should Post More Than Once a Month
Yes, I realize that my blog is quite sad. One pitiful little post over a month ago. But I am resolved to post at least three to four times a week. Starting now.
The Los Angeles Times has had several articles about the wildflower season, now in full swing. The one they published last weekend...
