My concerns of starting up my photography business all over again from scratch are being alleviated more quickly than I originally expected. Although I still have a hill to climb, it's not as steep as I had thought. Georgia could be called the, 'state of helping hands'; or the, 'state of generous hearts.'
And, while I'm at it, thank you Facebook, and photographer's forums, for introducing me to some really great photographers in the middle Georgia area, (I'm thinking of you, Steffi Smith, owner of
Cariad Photography! My encourager almost from the very beginning. She welcomed me with open arms.)

Now I'm in the process of wanting to meet more local photographers near me in Kathleen, Ga. In this industry you can't be an isolationist; we are a family and need each other for those unexpected surprises. Who are you going to call in case of an emergency? Several somebodies should be on a list. Or, when your second shooter can't make an event...you need again, several somebodies on a list you can call under those circumstance. I'm looking for a few good photographers I can trust to work with me; someone I can call when I need help, and someone I can refer clients to when my calendar is filled. I had a circle of trusted photographers in Florida, and used them on many occasions. I'm hoping to do the same here.
If you're a talented, skillful photographer in the Macon, Warner Robins area, Pederzani Photography would love to meet and talk with you. I think five businesses on a list comprised of photographers of all skill levels would be more than adequate to meet the demands for the uncertainties of this industry.
If you're confident in yourself and your ability as a photographer, or know of someone who would be interested in my proposal, take the time to contact me. Let's have a friendly cup of coffee or glass of wine. I'm excited to meet with you all.
Ciao~ Dorine Pederzani
