Unleashed: DR Photography
A while ago, Mike and I were talking about how much cash we've spent on photographic equipment over the past year. The number, of course, was quite staggering. At the time, I was numb to the idea, but later it hit me that I needed a company that I could use to write off photographic expenses that I was already incurring.
Mike and I did a little brainstorming, and from there DR Photography was born. We've been pushing the business up over the last few weeks, which adds to my already hectic schedule, but I believe that our online presence is ready to be seen by the world
The Website was all developed 'in house' (which mean we did it all ourselves), and I'm rather impressed with the final result. The site is so Web 2.0 it hurts. Fading effects, reflective logos, gradients and a surprising lack of words all help make this spot on the web look like it's ready for the future. For those of you plaing buzzword bingo, it's a JavaScript supported front end with Rails, fcgi, MySQL backend. I'm allergic to Flash and all the cross platform, installation headaches it brings, so that's why I didn't use it. Everything on this site is pure, and will run on all browsers with default security settings.
Now that the fun stuff is done, we're looking at a little more procurement of equipment, and scheduling some time every week to practice our craft. We were going to do it anyway, we might as well try to make some money at it.
