Simon Whitten is a long-standing and valued Queensberry client from Yorkshire in England. His association with the luxury castle hotel Swinton Park is very important to him, and for years his Queensberry sample album has rested on the piano in the drawing room. When the time came to update it, the question was “with what?” Having covered many great weddings at Swinton Park, he decided on an 18x12 Duo “best of” album, featuring three couples/weddings that reflected both his own best work and Swinton Park at various times of the year. • Sarah and Paul had “a glorious summer wedding in To View More >>

Darlene Hildebrandt was running a very successful Edmonton (Canada) studio with her first husband when we first met in 2000.

How do you reference your album orders in Photojunction? If you want the reference on all the paperwork/emails (including Photojunction) regarding an album order to be your clients' names (for example), that's what you need to enter into the Your Reference box during the Album Setup stage.

Searching a gazillion orders for the right "Bride and Groom" or "Wedding Album" or "QBY 12x12" is a bit hopeless. Having a specific To View More >>

Kathryn tweeted Ian about his blog post on selling to men, saying her studio actually did better with guys than girls.

While that's actually mildly alarming in one way (we don't want brides NOT to like us!), it's also a good thing. It means we don't need to worry about the grooms seeming bored, terrified, or otherwise un-engaged with us and what To View More >>
