A Life In HDR

There,s going to be a whole new beginning 

Over the next few weeks I will be having a re-shuffle of the website:www.mikestapletonphotography.co.uk, and a general in the organisation as the more I shoot the more disciplines I want to learn about, so I will be dropping the tagline A life in HDR, that doesn't mean I'm going to stop shooting HDR he just means that I'm not going to limit myself to this discipline anymore.

Marketing

Not having any marketing social media training I was/Am finding it really difficult to expand my audience and potential customer base, and be totally honest without customers the photography lifestyle will become really expensive hobby.

So what will I do about this problem? At the moment I'm having to put aside the photography the 2 to 3 days a week and learn about marketing and social media and how it works and what to do to get the best results.
 And how my going to do this? I hear you ask or maybe not.

A lot of research on you tube to start with and following some influential marketeers and social media experts like #FrederickVanJohnson #mediabytes #NickEllison #Zack just to name a few,

Hopefully after I've learnt enough my sales and how I market myself will improve dramatically.

Mike Stapleton Photography 

I love HDR photography, and a lot of people don't , if we all liked the same thing all the same stuff in the world would be very boring place, as I said I love HD photography like the process of taking photos are like the end result when they look realistic: and I myself have plenty of times over-processed some of these images.

this one for example 

God knows what maybe think this was a good image: in my defence it must early days in my HDR processing

And this is a much better version of virtually the same view taking on the same day at the same time in the morning just processed more sympathetically.

Now like I explained earlier. I'm having me the shuffle and reorganisation of Mike Stapleton Photography I will not solely concentrate on HDR photography from now on as HDR alone will not pay the rent so I'm expanding into interior design photography i.e. hotels and guesthouses and bed and breakfasts as well as some estate agents in and around Torbay South Devon
