"Archibald Studios" is Online
Our new Photography web site is online! The link is listed at the right of this blog (Green box near the top). It is probably obvious that we are new to the Photography as a business, but thought we had at least get a site out there so that it can begin attracting the search engines. The site is fairly basic right now, but will grow and improve as we get additional clients and more weddings under our belt. I'm excited about the availability calendar!
Please check out the Portfolio link on the left side of the new home page to see our latest image gallery. I've tried to gear it for those that would be interested in weddings, special events, and portraiture so I've left out much of the scenic and abstract stuff. I'm open to criticism and suggestions about any images that should be removed, or that might make us look like beginners. Also - any marketing ideas or suggestions are more than welcome. James...I need your creativity! (Or is Desta the creative one)

2 Month Checkup
Wow, has it been two months already since our little girl was born? Lillianna is growing too fast. While I'm very excited for her to be at the stage where she is walking and talking, I don't want her to grow up too fast either.
Lily had her 2 month checkup yesterday. Basically it was a review of her development so far. They checked her weight (a whopping 8lbs., 4 oz.), length and head circumference and we discussed how she's doing as far as awareness, interacting with others, tummy time, breastfeeding, etc. We also talked about what to expect at this age and in the next 2 months until her next appointment at 4 months.
As for the shots, she got the following, which were combined into 3 injections and 1 oral: - DTaP (Diptheria, Tetanus & Pertussis) - Polio - HepB - Pneumococcal Conjugate - Hib - Rotavirus She did REALLY well with the shots - she only cried for about 30 seconds right after they gave her the shots. She's such a little trooper. :) Though after we got home she became pretty fussy and remained that way for the rest of the day. The Doctor warned us that would probably happen.
Tom is still on a break from Photography school which will allow him time to get the web business caught up. Classes begin again on January 16 with "Portraiture II" and "Critical Thinking" The latter of the two is an online class and will allow Tom to have more evenings at home. Since almost all of the General classes remaining are offered on-line, we have decided that Tom will pair up one general class with one photography class for the rest of his schooling. (another couple of years).
Meanwhile, Tom has also been given a one-year extension on his "New York Institute of Photography" courses. So, he will be working hard to get those assignments knocked out as well.
You can see we didn't post any pictures today. I think we have posted most everything we have, so we will have to get shooting again. I think the video camera is getting a thin layer of dust as well. Time to blow it off and roll some tape! (James and Desta have inspired me!)
That's it for now...Have a great Day!
