If you've already got a website, do you need a Workspace site as well? Workspace is a really handy platform for selling your photography, designing and proofing your albums, and sharing your work online to build your business. So yes, we think Workspace will be a great business asset, especially since we make it all about YOU. Your brand is the star of the show. Instead of sending people to a generic Queensberry/Workspace corporate site to view their albums and images, Workspace lets you 'brand' the web pages and even integrate it completely with your existing site.

Johannes has been posting on Queensberry Connects for several months now. It's been great to have a regular photographer perspective, and personally we've found his insights and opinions inspiring. We asked him to contribute to our interview series by sharing his thoughts on album design. In the conversation, Ian asks him to expand on several posts he's written about the benefits of getting to know your clients before the wedding, and his "six secrets" to designing a great album... He also questions Johannes about how he interacts with his clients, his workflow and the part Photoshop plays. To View More >>

He'd just won his eighth straight Kodak Gold award  in the Wedding Album category, and we wanted to find out his secret...

Everyone has a different workflow, there's no question about it. Most wedding photographers have a shooting season and…the rest of the year. Depending on your clients, album design could be year round, but if you're lucky, you finish your album season shortly after your shooting season. The "downtime" is used for maintaining your business, small shoots, networking, and maybe taking it easier. One of the most important things to take care of during this time is organizing and backing up files. I 'm afraid album files get forgotten sometimes. I can't stress enough, you should back up your files. To View More >>
