It's hard to believe that as we enter into 2013, it hasn't been a full year yet, and actually only 8 months since officially starting Cass Imaging. Last week Sandi and I signed up for a three month course called "A Photography Business Makeover", and the first course was this past Friday. It's geared towards helping photography businesses restart for the new year, mostly for those needing a change to help get off of a plateau that they might be hitting. We haven't slowed down, and if anything we are still having trouble keeping up, but we wanted to use this course as a way to pick up some new ideas and different ways of doing things. It was pretty cool to see the struggles that other businesses have hit, after years of being in business, and how they got through them. It was also cool to see that the struggles we are hitting, that are due to trying to keep up with the amount of business coming in, were the struggles that companies didn't hit until years into being in business.

I've written enough about the end of 2012 and how much Sandi and I are looking forward to 2013 with Cass Imaging, so I just want to officially close out the year with sharing our best shots from the Central Park shoot. It was freezing out, snow on the ground, wind was whipping, and once we got to the park I had to think quick on how I wanted to shoot this with only about an hour or less of shooting light left.

I brought my Canon Rebel G and a few rolls of ISO400 35mm film down to North Wildwood with me to play around with during the weekend of New Years Eve. I love mixing in some film now and usually bring at least one if not two film cameras on any trip I take, which Sandi always yells at me since it usually adds to all the other gear...that we actually need for whatever shoot we're on. I have another blog you can check out on here from a few months ago, about what made me start shooting film. Here are a handful of the shots. I get them developed at Rite Aid right down the street from my house, and have them give me the prints as well as a CD which I upload into Lightroom to use digitally. Enjoy!
