Photobiz is one of the many important anchors to my business. As a storefront to my portfolio, Photobiz offers so many different options in designing your flash or html website. From their top of the line customer service to the user friendly design templates; Photobiz has definitely helped me take my business to the next level. Check out Stephanie Reeder Photography to see the beautiful job photobiz’s flash website has done in showcasing my work to potential clients.

I’ve had my Shootsac just over a year now and let me tell you how it has revolutionized my ability to shoot a wedding. I love the fact that I can carry all my essential equipment in one bag that doesn’t weigh over 30lbs to carry. The additional bonus to carrying a Shootsac is that it looks fabulous as well. If it wasn’t for me pulling out a lens, no one would know that I was carrying my life in this bag…It’s fabulous!!

There is just not one registration being given away in this category, we’re giving away FIVE WPPI Registrations this year and if you don’t have your ticket ready for this event, you’re going to be missing out!! WPPI is a once a year event where over 15,000 photographers from all over come together to be inspired by one another and learn new ways to expand and take their businesses to the next level. Last year was a life changing experience for me and my business. It’s hand’s down the one time of the year that I look forward to the most!

Registrations only covers your entry into the trade show, platform classes, and other WPPI scheduled events. To see a schedule of events and wonderful speakers, you can visit their website here

Another fabulous anchor to my business is ProPhoto Blogs. They’re beautiful high-end photo blogs allow me showcase my most recent work flawlessly. They also take the time to listen and implement customer request by continually adding new features to their blogs which allows your clients to view your work beautifully.

In addition, you can access invaluable business tools including sales, marketing, and branding strategies. They also provide amazing photography training, exclusive workshops, and online mentoring opportunities!

Can I just say that I LOVE BAYPHOTO!! Not only are their products top of the line, but their customer service backs them up 100% percent. On several occasions Bayphoto has saved my life. From changing an order directly over the phone last minute to taking the time to walk me through a customized project…they just simply ROCK!

The Boudoir Divas are the industry’s leaders when it comes to Boudoir Photography. They began the movement a few years back to “Bring Boudoir Back,” and I must say they have in such a beautiful way! Combining class, elegance, and beauty they have mastered their art and have been sharing it with others who desire to capture the same. I had the amazing privilege to attend their workshop back in June and had a blast learning new lighting, posing, and photography techniques from these fabulous ladies. If you haven’t already checked them out, make sure to head on over to see their beautiful work in action!

Kristina Kathrynn Photography and Design has a great talent in marketing and branding a business to it’s finest. If you your in need of a logo design, branding overhaul, or simply looking to get started, then she’s the lady to start with!

Well, this fabulous lady has put together not only a posing guide to give you posing ideas, but also inspirational setups and tips to get that perfect image! Skye Hardwick Edmond has a beautiful talent for capturing children and I must say I am a huge fan of hers.

I will be the first to tell you that I am not a designer, I’m a photographer! That’s why I turn to the experts over at The Album Cafe for their beautiful album templates. The Album Cafe has such a wide variety of album templates to choose from that are easy to use and implement into your workflow…A must have if you ask me!

Having a final product is one thing, but to finish it off with beautiful packaging takes your customer experience to a whole other level. HB Photo Packaging has so many option to choose from that there would be no way you couldn’t find something that didn’t work with your existing color theme or branding. Their products are just simply fabulous!

I have my stock of go to lenses, but sometimes I’ll have a wedding or a session that requires just a little more flexibility or range.
