The Traveler

The Traveler is none other than my close friend and travel agent extraordinaire, Steve Shulem, of Strictly Vacations. After a rousing time in the Bahamas, this image was created while heading back to our ship (Oceania's newest flagship, Marina). For once, Steve's penchant for walking far ahead was fortuitous.

As I lagged behind while rushing to our ship just moments before the gangplank was retracted, I noticed the silhouette of Steve walking into the setting sun. I called his name, he turned slightly, and I captured this extraordinary moment. 

Obviously, capturing this exposure was the just the beginning of the creative process. A few hours in Photoshop, along with my trusty software, OnOne, helped to give this image all the power and energy I had in mind. 

As always, should you have any questions, no concern is too small.

Keywords Make for Poor Communication [i.e. for orange county photographer, or photographers in orange county, etc.]

Photographers looking for the most efficacious keywords would do best to contact a professional service who can do the research for them. It's fairly inexpensive and will save any portait studio a great deal of time, especially portrait photographers whose primary focus is family portraits.


Photographers in Orange County, or any large metropolitan area, or a photography studio in any bustling Orange County city such as Irvine, Mission Viejo, Rancho Santa Margarita, Newport Beach or Tustin, would do best to discover targeting keywords exclusively for their local. 


As a family portrait photographer, specializing in not only studio photography, but family portraits at the beach (i.e. beach portraits), park portraits, empty next portraits, and contemporary portraits, could do no better than contacting Golden Nugget Keyword search. They not only were instrumental with my portrait photography studio, but for any photographer in Orange County they would be most helpful.


Now that you may be wondering why I've said a great deal while saying nothing, this was simply an exercise in seeing if I could quickly write a couple paragraphs using all the keywords I just discovered were most beneficial for my portrait studio. As a photographer in Rancho Santa Margarita, a smaller city with very few portrait photographers, my keywords are more specific than let's say a photographer in Irvine, or a photographer in Mission Viejo. 

Regardless, it appears that once I began trying to incorporate all my keywords in a single posting, I simply cannot stop inserting them willy-nilly, such as a photographer in Tustin might do were they attempting to promote their portrait studio, or photography studio, which more than likely specializes in family portraits (and possibly senior portraits and Orange County headshots).


Which raises the question, do you prefer to spell headshots with no hyphen, or head-shots with a hyphen? Or maybe with not hypen at all, head shot? Regardless how one might spell headshots, it's better to do them well than worrying about how to spell headshot. As an Orange County Photographer, and more specifically, a photographer in Laguna Niguel, it's vital to have a portrait studio where the photographer can create family portraits and meet with fellow portrait photographers, regardless if they do headshot business portraits. Senior portraits are a different matter altogether. 


However, photographers in Orange County, as well as photographers in Irvine (and photographers in Mission Viejo) might find it beneficial to incorporate keywords that not only show them as portrait photographers, and headshot photographers in Orange County, but that their portrait studio, whether it be a photography studio creating studio photography, also is proficient at designing creative family portraits, children portraits, and senior portraits. 


Having been a portait photographer in Rancho Santa Margarita for nearly 16 years, and a photographer in Orange County for over 30 years, I can attest to the turism that a photographers portrait studio will thrive only when their portrait families can find the type of portrait photography they need for their family portrait needs.


Enough said.
