Hey Maggie, what’s going on with your photo website?

Posted by: Maggie

Well, I told a bunch of people that it was going to launch on the 4th and now it’s the 15th and it’s not up yet! What’s the deal?!

Well, Josh was basically ready to have it up, but I didn’t have the content ready. So I spent a weekend or so getting the content written and moving my photography posts from this site to that, resizing images for the galleries, and cropping images for the header. And now that part is complete, which means that the site should be up, right? Well, no. So, as it turns out Josh expected to launch without the portfolio image galleries done and then just add them later. And to a normal person I’m sure that would seem fine. After all, I’ve written a post about all of my shoots so the images will already be there, but just in the individual posts and not in galleries. So, no big deal, right? Wrong.

I’m not so much a normal person. I am a person who when moving has to unpack as quickly as humanly possible (no more than 2 days!), I cannot stand to have unpacked boxes around. I’m also a person who purchased basically all of the furniture in her home in a single shopping trip. Basically, I just can’t stand for something to be unfinished or incomplete. I guess that makes me sort of a perfectionist or maybe just a little obsessive compulsive.

I also just decided that I want to have some new headshots done for my bio portion of the site. So I don’t think that I can launch the site before that.

I do realize that all of this is a little crazy, or maybe a lot crazy. I should just launch it and add the photos and the galleries later. But, you know what, I don’t really want to. It’s my business and my website and I want it to be how I want it, which is complete when it launches. Please feel free to tell me how crazy you think I am.

So, right now, I’m hoping for the first week of August give or take a week.  Stay tuned and I’ll be sure to keep you updated!

Taking a Break

Dear Readers,

In case you care, I just wanted to let you know that I’m swamped this week with work and getting my photo business website ready to launch, so I decided to take the week off posting. I’ll be back to regular posting on Monday. Have a great week everyone!

xo,

Maggie
