I just customized the landing page to be a little more stylish than the stock one given to you by twitter. I have also added a Twitter Status up by my bio. Friend us if you are a client or want updates. I don’t just twitter about credit card stuff, anything photography related hints, tips, and other things I run across.
I was invited to speak at PPOFC Professional Photographers of Colorado about credit card processing. I discussed Tiered Pricing vs. Cost Plus pricing which we use. I also talked about the best places to get credit card processing. Many merchants and photographers still believe they will get the best deal from their bank. In reality this is the worst place to get a merchant account. When a merchant contacts us for a free quote and mentions they are with a major bank, we know that we are going to be able to save the merchant money. We talked about some of the solutions that photographers are often using in there businesses including using Contact Management Systems Like ShootQ.
I had a great time meeting many of you and look forward to talking with you in the coming week.
Well the teams are set and the bets have been laid out. Can’t wait to have some fun with the guys and gals from ShootQ. Nashville is going to be a lot of fun. Looks like some pretty tough competition from the photography world at this event. I can’t wait to meet those of you that are signed up with us through Shootq and those that are thinking about signing up with us for credit card processing.
Game on, and see you there.
This is the time of year when a lot of photographers have time to look at the products they use to run their business as well as sell to clients. In the last few weeks, I have gotten a lot of calls for authorize.net accounts to integrate with PickPic. PickPic is a great cart with a lot of options for professional photographers. The customer service and product are second to none and are what you have come to expect from White House Custom Color. If you just bought a PickPic cart and want the best rates on your credit card processing as well as great setup fee give us a call.
A few reasons to contact us first and not just authorize.net
1. Our setup is cheaper
2. Our processing rates are going to be cheaper
3. You will get our customer service as well as authorize.net
No contracts (cancel if you find a better rate)
Low setup and application fee
Best rates in the business

If you love photography and I know you do, you will love these incredible photographer interviews. I have been reading these interviews for the last 6 months or so and they are so interesting. What I love about them is by the time you are done reading them you really feel like you know these photographers. Its interesting to see what makes great photographers tick. What makes them stand out. I think after reading them I understood its (them) they are what makes their business stand out. Reading about these photographers have helped me in my business.
Some of the photographers interviewed by crash include:

I think the photography community will have fun watching this video. Its unrealistic use of features we use every day as well as made up features we wished we had. I will have to admit this video is a bit geeky but well worth watching. I am a personal fan of the uncrop feature that is used. Wouldn’t that be useful.
Every once in a while we like to spotlight new innovative gear that helps photographers do there job better. The camera slingers Dual Camera Strap makes shooting much easier for the photographer that likes to shoot two cameras. Normal camera straps fall off your shoulders and limit your movement. You can buy these directly from camera slingers or places like adorama.
Check this video out. Even the chiropractor likes them.
