What you say? Two BIG DAYS!

Best Wishes to Valerie and Corey. These two amazing musicians are professionals in the genre of bluegrass: Bluegrass/CopperWatchMusic. Valerie’s mom bought the highest bid for my photo services that I donated toward a local, non-profit, environmental organization (Jacob’s Creek Watershed Association). I was thrilled that she loved my work but was shocked when I heard of her daughter’s wedding date: OCT. 7th!!! Unfortunately, I was already booked! Fortunately, my business partner, Chris Lane was able to capture and edit their wedding! Corey and Valerie told me how pleased they were with Chris’ professionalism and creativity. They also expressed how happy they were to discover us in the last month before their wedding. I can only express how fortunate I am to be connected to such a wonderful network of clients, great photographers and non-profits. Donate & hire locally to support your community. Should you hire either me or Chris, you should expect a ton of beautiful images from your Big Day Memories. Hope you enjoy Valerie & Corey’s entire wedding day on my website: Aaron McGregor Photography

You two are Rockstars! Small business Saturday? Cyber Monday? My answer is Yes! to both! I can count my business partners on four fingers!

A Wedding Among the Trees

When a couple plan their wedding, they create a microcosm of their existence and relationship together. Cory and Kevin celebrated their nuptials in Linn State Park in the scenic Laurel Highlands, Ligonier, PA. Being Cory’s friend, I was amazed but not surprised by her carefree attitude and adventuresome spirit as she hiked the trails in her gown BEFORE the ceremony! I regard the photo of her with her flower girls as one of my best images to date! I wish them the Best of Wishes! Congratulations Cory & Kevin Bowen! #browenwedding www.amcgregorphotography.com

Photo Marketing Tips

“Wowzers!” you say. “I am getting clients from all over the place!” Sure I get some local bookings from recommendations on Facebook, or from word of mouth, but most people find me on Google. Hello!?! How many of you are surprised at a good ol’ Googling? I get contacted from people living in California, Minnesota, NYC & even Europe who need a photographer in the Pittsburgh area. I ask them, “How did you hear about me?” – Are you sitting? Their response, “I searched Google!” At this I click my ruby slippers and say, “There’s no place like homepage!” I applaud Search Engine Optimizations on my webhost, PhotoShelter. I do not advertise on the web nor feel the need to do so. I enjoy the benefits of pleasing clients and having them recommend me to their friends & family. By adhering to this marketing plan, I can keep prices within your budget! Best wishes and congratulations to Caitlin & Matt on their wedding in Pittsburgh, PA. Did I mention that having a blog on WordPress has it’s benefits too! I hope you enjoy these images of this gorgeous couple. amcgregorphotography.com
