Getting a Local Job by International Marketing

I still write this blog mainly because of my passion to share knowledge. But let’s be honest and admit that it’s also a powerful marketing tool. This is just as much an advantage to you then it is to me. Building a name and getting clients is a powerful stimulation to go on even though it’s sometimes hard to keep putting all this time and energy in it.

The impact and the mysterious was of blogging keeps surprising me. Like when I was contacted by Suzanne, an Egyptian beauty who lives in Belgium. She needed pictures for a casting for a videoclip of her favorite Egyptian artist. She first did a shoot with another photographer but wasn’t happy with the results. She spoke about it with a friend in Egypt and he turned out to be reading my blog. And that’s how I got this exotic beauty in front of my camera.

The picture above was the very first we shot. You’ll understand that on moments like this, I become an even bigger fan of blogging. More images tomorrow.

    And we all thank you for your time and effort in blogging your works. I’d also like you to put some tech info; is that your beloved 70-200 you are using?

    I was planning to get the Canon 200 L instead of the 70-200, I like very much the crispness of prime lenses. But I am still undecided ;) I like the stabilization in the zoom.. But don’t have the money to buy the two ;)

    Thanks.
