Women's Camera Strap designed by Black Rapid

I'm giddy with butterflies to show you the new R-Strap designed just for women by Black Rapid! Yup, that's right ladies, a camera strap that is designed just for us with all our beautiful contours in mind. Not only does the RS-W1 have a special cut, but it is thinner both in width and thickness. Black Rapid has even added pretty velvety material on each end to add the perfect, feminine touch while still retaining the professional, sleek look.

Today I ran down to the beach, set the intervalometer in my camera and ran around in the golden, grassy dunes showing my new RS-W1 Women's R-Strap created by Black Rapid. I so {heart} you guys!

So take a walk with me to the beach here in Ocean Shores to see the new Women's R-Strap:

New Business Cards

I am often going through my Shootsac, Think Tank Airport Security, Airport Check In computer case, not to mention coat pockets, miscellaneous purses and bags and find myself holding "The Business Card". The name on the card is sooooo familiar, I should remember who it is, but at the time I received "The Business Card" didn't write on "The Business Card" who the person was, looked liked, or how I could remember them. "The Business Card" ends up on a pile on my desk until I have time to Google such person and/or business to spark my ever-multitasking-memory into doing it's job.

So last week I was staring at my own business cards and realized that they are just as guilty of sitting in someones purse, pocket or desk at that very moment. I did some thinking and made a really brave move for some new cards: I put my own photo on the back of the card.

That's right: no more picture of my past clients (love you all!). I just answered one of the basic questions someone might have when looking at my card a month or a year after I give it to them: "who IS this person?" They see me wearing my camera gear: I'm the little blonde photographer they met!

Here is the front of the card with the 3 separate card designs on the back; check out that I'm wearing the Black Rapid R-Strap (the world's greatest camera strap) in all three images:
