Poll Opinions

I never claim to be an expert with the camera, photoshop, graphic design, indesign, and everything else that comes to art. But it is my job, and I do consider myself a seasoned and experinced artist within these fields. I've always wanted to impart my knowledge to others who are willing to learn the trade. What do you think, should this be another venue to go down? Yes or No send me an e-mail

Shout Out!!:

To my GF! Always on my case about not doing enough, heh shes right I do burn a lot of time on non-sense.
To my Calvary Cousin, What a sweet hat!! and Welcome back to SD! Happy Belated B-Day to his wife!
To my mother an amazing person inside and out, always pushing me for the best.
To my family, always the heart and soul home is where the heart is.

The Projects

AppelPhotoDesign - (APD):

First and foremost is my AppelPhotoDesign business. My life long project and creation. While not all of it was an original Idea after a few failures (and even in failure, one find success) in creating a substainable business this one is and will be my most stable. If one were to ask 20 years from now if it would still be AppelPhotoDesign I probably would tell you no, it's changed over the years but is still owned by me. And like everything things tend to grow, mature, and then fade away into the history books. AppelPhotoDesign, is just like what is says in the name. It is my photography and Design Company. Many will ask, what makes me stand out against other small companies? Can I offer quality service (yes)? Can I offer cutting edge photography and design (yes)? Can --> Insert Another Business Motto HERE <-- (yes and yes)?

So what makes me different? What stands me apart from the others? Well, I always believe in that the client should be partake as much as possible in there own design and photography projects as much as I am. One might ask themselves, well that's why I am hiring you, the professional into making these decisions for me. And in some cases I will, like should that logo shouldn't have these colors versus the others. But I will sit down with you, or over email, or over the phone to hammer out exactly what is needed and why. Every client is unique, every client is special. For what ever reason you decide to go with AppelPhotoDesign you've decided that you want to become part of your project and that it is very special to you.

HandyMan Marcos - (HMM):

A small side marketing project, After listening to many upon many pod casts about marketing, money saving tips, and other various inspirational podcasts. I figure it's high time to start getting involved in life in general. Mostly it's seeing how folks who have a lot of talent in front of them and don't do anything about it. I'll be the first to say that I was in the same boat for the longest time. But mine wasn't so much seeing that I could do something, it was mostly procrastination.
With this is a campaign using our wonderfully free marketing websites to see if my stratergy in marketing create a decent profit for a local Handy Man. At the moment I'm in talks with him on setting things up, some of the difficulties that I'm encountering is how to market someone with his talents.

Creating New Artwork - (CNA):

Like all artist I'm always developing new ideas, techniques, and work. What are we artist if we aren't always developing our skills in some way shape or form. This week i'm going to push developing a small project i've been wanting to do for the longest time. Like most ideas, this idea isn't particularlly new to the world. We've been doing this ever since we as a culture could draw. Hopefully by the end of this week i'll have a rough of what i'm trying to do. If not.. sigh, another week of useless time spending.

Thoughts and Ideas:

The first and foremost idea on my mind is trying to sync my social media together so that there is a social synergy between all of my networks. The second is searching for a new job in Las Vegas. Why Las Vegas, NV? To me it is the energy that runs through that city, it almost never sleeps, it's always on the forefront of cutting edge design and technology. And most of all it's a fresh start in the new state.
