Default Feeling Extremely Discouraged Update

So after my post ( I am feeling extremely discouraged), I wanted to do a follow up.
I have been getting much more business thanks to all of you DPS'ers!

I have completely updated my website and removed some of the bad, and replaced them with (hopefully) some good photos.

I am not feeling very discouraged at all anymore, because I have come to understand the value of my work.

Anyways,
Feel free to check out the updated site:

LMP Photography

And once again, thank you to all of the amazing people that responded to my post!
Mahalo,
LeZandra P.

Great to hear! Selling is like a roller coaster. They key to selling is not to get too high during the good times and to not let yourself get too low during the bad times. Try to keep as even as possible and you'll feel better and do more business. When you're down and discouraged, you cannot sell as effectively. People can sense it. And you're not on top of your game.

Keep up the good work!

Well, you have no need to worry.

Excellent site - I'm not sure who you used (PhotoBiz, etc.), but it's fantastic nonetheless.

Clean and intriguing.

Thumbs up

Your new website is a huge improvement. Keep learning and growing. Unlike some members, you clearly are open minded and can take criticism. Good for you!

just checked out your website - and it is looking very professional - you have some great photos on there. I must say I think your "Boudoir" work is your best - especially the first frame which is stunning.

Thanks for the update - and all the best for your photography business.

My thoughts exactly. I think that you have an eye for boudoir and it really shows in your pics...

good choice with Photobiz. You're obviously enjoying the template swap function!

One note with the boudoir gallery - 3 of your first 4 images are the same PoV. Might want to mix those around a little.

Thank you for that! I will get to it!

I think Boudoir is my favorite
