Default Getting ideas

I am alwasy at looking at ways to improve my pics and seeing most of photography is sport/ action/ documentary, I like to visit Getty Images - Unsupported browser detected and browse through the content of that latest and greatest are up to on a day to day basis.

My guess is if you want to learn how to take images that sell, your could do worse than take notes from the way these pro's do it.

I stalk...err, follow the blogs of portrait photographers that I admire. I've learned SO much just studying their work. Anyone who knows me here knows I wanna be Ruthie Mae when I grow up.

Her stuff is nothing short of amazing, though. She's been awesome in helping me along, too, I've learned a lot from her. Plus she's a pretty cool friend to have, anyway.

Susan, beautiful photographs! Your work is lovely. I see you have Weebly for your site. At th bottom it says it's free. Is it? I like the ways yours looks much better than mine, which is also free.

Thanks so much, Danielle! That's really sweet of you. Yep, I use weebly for now, I'm thinking of changing to photobiz (which is why I let my pro account expire).

Can I ask why you are switching? Do you have to know any code to use Weebly?

I like the look and feel of photobiz better. Weebly is all drag and drop, super easy, you don't need to know any coding.

If you have a moment would you look at my site and tell me if you think it would look better on Weebly instead?
