August Newsletter
|
|
Welcome
|
Winter is well and try and truly here! As I type this newlsetter I'm looking out my window at black skies and pouring rain - great for the gardens, not so great for weddings! It's been a busy couple of weeks at Seldex and as the finishing touches are put on our Online Ordering System I am happy to say it is nearly ready. Our Online Ordering System will make ordering quick and easy and give you the ability to place an order at any time of the day or night. Once the Online Ordering System is up and running you will also be able to order your new swatch box upgrade which will be available soon.
This months newsletter is jam packed with upcoming educational opportunaties for both experienced photographers and newbies looking for knowledge and inspiration. Considering its winter and things are a little slower its a great time to work on your business, not just in it!
Cheers, Nicole.

Seldex will be visiting New Zealand in late September as part of Jerry Ghionis's "Turn the Ordinary into the Extraordinary" upcoming tour.
Jerry will share some of his latest images that are influenced by cinema, music, fashion and the world around him, that will help breath new life into your photography and help define your own style.
He will share his posing techniques that will help you never to run out of poses ever again. He will demonstrate how he directs his clients to achieve fun and fashionable images, including + size brides, odd height couples and couples who don't want to be posed. He will teach you how to shoot like 2 photographers and not only capture the natural magic of the wedding day but create magic of your own.
Renowned for turning the ordinary into the extraordinary, Jerry will share some of his latest and best examples of how to bring out the best in a poor and challenging environment. After this seminar, you will never complain about an ordinary location ever again.
Jerry will share his experience from being the backbone to one of Australia's largest and most respected studios to starting a high-end boutique brand in a recession. He will reveal his business mindset and favorite marketing strategies that will help recession proof your business. Learn how to communicate more effectively to your clients to give yourself every opportunity to maximize your sales. You don't have to be the best. You just have to be different.
