Hey all. I am sure you guys can tell from my pics that I am not a pro! Anyways, I have been getting a lot more questions and feelers for if I can shoot more soccer teams and their kids and some beach shoots. I will be ready, (hopefully) right when winter clears. I have my AB's, stands etc!! I cannot keep giving out my work cell/cards!
Question, I cannot for the life of me decide how to incorporate my name.......plain old William Jones on my cards.
Any ideas on how to use my name or not use my name for a very small business name, would be most helpful!

Nothing wrong with William Jones Photography!!

Well make sure no one else is using that name. Not to sure how it works in US, but in australia we are able to search registered company names very easily.

Sometimes having a simple straight forward name that people can remember is all you need.

Gdluck in designing your business card.

But think about your company name first.

Ty both....I do want to keep it simple. I will look into registering my name as a business. Have not researched this yet.

+1 for Overnightprints.com - every time I hand someone one of my cards, they say "Wow, those are nice cards", because of the thick professional feel, and the gloss look of them.

It's a perfect way to start someone off with a professional attitude of you.

thankyou thank you! I need stuff like this to help me out. I thought of, and have put WJ Photography on my pics at times....guess I thought it seemed bland. But, Simple is better and I am who I am...not a corporation!
