Default Targeted Brick and Mortar stores to advertise?

I know it depends on the market I'm going for, and I know marketing pretty well, but I got the slightest idea where to put some business cards at for my services.

My services are family portraits, portfolios, and commercial/advertising/catalog. The last two I don't see much I can do without actually going to companies and giving them my card (or emailing them my info.), but my goal right now I have business card displays with my business cards I want to put into 'brick and mortar' stores to get some kind of advertising. And from what I've analyzed family portrait audience would be the crowd I would be needing to attract in the brick and mortar' arena of advertising, correct?

Anyways, the problem I have now more specifically is which stores to target first, now I already know only target "mom and pop" shops first or only because they're more likely to accept my business card displays at all. Just in my area the big chain corporate stores businesses gets literally all or most of the food traffic than "mom and pop" shops.

The only one I could think of is a flower shop(s).What you guys think and suggest?

Hot damn!

They got brick and motor businesses now? Doesn't seem that fuel efficient to me to strap a motor to a brick, but hey, Obama's gotta get his fuel mileage ratings somehow!!
