Simon Woolf is one of my favourite people. One of our longest-standing clients and quite possibly the most energetic person I know (if you don't believe me check out his Facebook page). He sells beautiful landscapes from his shop in Wellington's Cable Car Lane – access way to one of Wellington's top tourist attractions. One day Simon saw a tourist photographing one of his landscapes through the display window, and posted about it on Facebook. "I asked her for a look, and she stated, 'It wasn't a bad copy but was a little light'. I then told her I was the photographer, and she was being a bit To View More >>

We've created albums for celebrities of all sorts over the last forty years, from the likes of Pope John Paul 2, Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana through to many others famous in business, entertainment and the arts.

Things have a habit of creeping up on you, as our friends at Seldex have reminded us by sending an email to their clients reminding them that come July they won't be able to use Photojunction's cover design and Send Order functions.

We really love it when people get just as excited about wedding albums as we do! And Melissa Jill is a photographer who simply loves what she does. She recently blogged about her new Queensberry sample album for Dan & Lindsey who got married last October at the Royal Palms in Phoenix. "I'm so excited! I just received a new sample album from Queensberry. It's 18x10 inches of supple micro leather goodness. I wish you could touch it through the screen. It's SO soft!

Here's my second handy hint about file management. Don't muck about with your hi res files outside Photojunction after they've been imported. The key words there are outside Photojunction.

Here are three alternative scenarios, which all keep PJ happy if used properly: 1. Do art work on your images before importing them. This is so you can import one set of finished files without lots of extra images, sub-folders etc to confuse To View More >>
