I think the biggest compliment you can receive as an artist, is hearing that you have inspired someone in some way. When I received a comment on the blog from Alex of “Photo Finish” (a husband/wife team based in Germany), we were thrilled! We have so many people from different countries looking at our blog each day, but rarely do they leave a comment or drop a note saying hello. (I realize this could be due to language differences of course!) Just in the past month we have had visits from over 40 countries ranging from France, Belgium, Hong Kong, Singapore, Brazil, South Africa, India, Italy, Australia, and Spain- to name a few. And of course our new friends from Germany; Alex and Susanne. We were delighted to find out that they mentioned us on their blog, so “Danke Schoen” you guys! Now, take a moment and go:
And if you have never left us a comment, we would love to hear about you and where you are from! :)
What is a photo blog without a photo….here’s Gabe reorganizing our business cards which he does a few times a day.
Hello! I’m a quite recent follower of your blog (I think I found it about two weeks ago – it was through Betsy King’s blog where she mentioned you) and I love it! I love the photos but I also love reading about you and your big beautiful family. I am a Swedish woman living in Quebec city with my Canadian boyfriend. We have a son named Bailey (15 months) and I’m documenting his life in pictures and in videos so that my family in Sweden can follow him. I love photography but I’m very much an amateur, even though I try to get better all the time. I look forward to keeping track of you! :)
That’s awesome! Glad to see someone else’s child is helping with the business too! :)
Thank you – Danke schoen :-D
Best
Susanne & Alex
