A bit of change



I mentioned a couple months ago that change is in the air. Well, after quite a bit more work than I was expecting my new look and some much awaited updates will start happening this week! I'm really excited as these updates will do much to better represent me and to serve my clients.
The first thing most people will notice is my logo update. The background pattern will show up in many places as will the "Colin Michael Photographer" logo. The frame around "Colin Michael Photographer" will be used where appropriate. I really like the background as it has the look of vintage wallpaper to me, I love it! Be aware that the page that comes up when you type in www.colinmichaelphoto.com will soon be changing so don't be surprised!
The next major change is to my client area where I have just introduced a new e-commerce site. The new system is much more user friendly and offers so much more flexibility! I will now be able to offer gift registries, gift certificates, and even albums directly to registered users. Registration is super easy, just name and email so that the system can keep track of your favorite images and any orders you place. If anyone has images saved on the old cart, I can email you the link to that site which I will keep running through mid-January. As a special promotion, I am offering a 20% coupon as a "thank you" to everyone who orderins within the next month, just enter "SLO" into the coupon code when checking out. The coupon will be good for one month from today and can not be combined with other offers.
I should mention that some events are hidden and others are not yet posted. If there is an event you wish to see, please contact me.
I also recently added a couple of new weddings to the site and will be adding a couple more in the coming weeks. I also plan to launch a new website with personal art from my fashion work and landscapes, but that is a bit further down the line.
I'm really excited about all the changes and hope they better serve all of you. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please contact me or leave a message here.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone!
