It seems like I’m always forgetting to keep my blog up-to-date! Hopefully I can try to post something at LEAST once a week. Hopefully.
Anyway – it’s been close to 7 months since I last posted something worth reading. Between then and now, I have just posted a ton of posts with photos from recent shoots. But now I have some actual updates\news to post here 
~Updates and Changes to { Photography by Bradley } ~
Since the start of 2010, I have been focusing on updating and structuring { Photography by Bradley }. Every year I seem to attempt this, and I fail. So far, this year has been productive! I have finally built a pricing structure for everything I do\offer. Previously, I use to charge different amounts depending on the request, and depending on what I felt like charging. But to keep this from eventually coming back to haunt me, I decided to build a structured pricing system for all of my shoots in 2010. My new pricing structure is not posted anywhere online, for a few reasons: The new structure has A LOT of variables that will affect pricing, and I want to control who can see how much I charge. I am also forbidding myself from altering the prices in my ’2010 Pricing Structure’ until 2011. I am going to try and limit myself to changing my pricing, by doing it once a year.
If you would like to read\learn more on my new pricing structure, you can just go to my website and click on “The Investment” under “Information”.

Along with the completely redesigned pricing structure, there have been a few minor changes\updates as well:
1) I have registered 2 new domains for { Photography by Bradley } to make it slightly easier to get to the website, and for better SEO results. The two new domains are; http://www.BradCapote.com/ and http://www.PhotographyByBradley.com/
2) I am stilling fumbling with the new website, but I am trying to setup\organize a new color scheme for the website and blog, along with possibly creating a new logo.
3) I am now adding watermarks to all of the photographs that I post online. The reasons to this should be fairly obvious.
4) Now that I am getting more and more work from people that I do not personally know, I am going to begin using OFFICIAL model-releases, and wedding-agreements for all shoots starting Summer ’10.
~ Photography Related Updates/News ~
Since I last posted, I have had quite a few additional shoots and bookings which include 2 engagement shoots and 2 weddings scheduled for Summer ’10. Over the next few days I will post some of the photos from the 2 engagement shoots (these two couples also booked me for their weddings).
I have also decided to start adding some text to my blog-posts that contain photographs. In order to get more readers\attention, I will try my best to add some “stories” to my posts relating to recent shoots and photo-outings.

That SHOULD be everything! Keep checking back for more posts\information.
