Hello!
My name is Isabel and I am just starting out with my practice. My business name is Something New Consulting, and I am targeting the Wedding Professionals niche.

I hope to work more with Wedding Coordinators and any other type of wedding professional (florists, caterers, bakers, bridal shops...etc.).

I have over 10 years of administrative experience and over 8 years of specializing in IT. I have a passion for design and photography and have been doing freelance work for a bit. I still maintain a day job of being a Web Content Manager, and hope to be able to allow for my clients to tap into my creative skills and talents by providing marketing assistance (with photography, photo editing and design capabilities) as well as the standard office administration assistance.

One of my passions is trying to teach small businesses how to use the Web to their advantage by the use of blogs, etc.

I'm so very excited to finally be getting started on this dream of mine!

My website is under construction, however, I have a "coming soon" page set up with my new logo. Take a look and let me know what you think!

I can't wait to get started and begin sharing and learning from all of you!

Hi Isabel, welcome to the forums
I'll look forward to seeing your review request posted to the Reviews section!

I think it's great that you're educating your clients about the tools available to them - that's one thing we have a heavy focus on in my own practice and it's something we feel is very important. I recently tried to contract with a service provider for something I don't know how to do for my business on my own (tax accounting) and my questions and attempts at learning at least the basic foundation of what was happening/needed to happen and why were met with virtual silence. Needless to say, I have since started looking for another more responsive accountant - but it just really reiterated for me how frustrating it can be to be the client who's kept in the dark and how rewarding a mutually beneficial working relationship can be!

Anyway Welcome to the community, I'll look forward to chatting with you further.

Hello, thank you for asking about my interest in photography! I started out with art in general (mixed media and collage) during a trying time in my life. It was a way to beat the blues and the stress of my ordeal. I turned to art and made the best of friends all while providing therapy for my soul.

During that phase, I began to turn to the camera...I haven't looked back! I would share my photography site (it's just a Flickr page at the moment), but, I'm not 100% clear on the rules. Feel free to PM me and I'd gladly share some of my photography. I love looking through the photos of when I just started versus where I am now...the progress is notable after practicing and practicing.

I shoot digital with my Canon dSLR and mostly shoot in RAW format. I love the post-process, and especially love the look of Black & White photography. I can't wait to see your work, too!
