Hi Christine,
I was given the link to your Wootness website from the Masters of Photography FB page. I am very impressed with your approach and frankness. I have been a photographer for over 40 years and I preach the same message to my students, peers and sometimes to wannabees. Thank you for your contribution and passion. I have just one suggestion. The title should be “The big Girls and Boys Guide to starting a photography business. You website works for all of us!

Thanks again,
Tim Mathiesen

Hi Christine,

I really like your blog and your GREAT About Page:

“Wootness™! will not congratulate you with a hug – it will pound you on the back and cheer in your ear until deafness approaches. And then it will buy the next round.”

I shared your post about our courses with our team in what I call the “Daily Boost” to show how our membership expands through solid writers like you

Genius and pleasing blog! Keep it up!

Thank you for all of your tips and raw advice! I have found it incredibly helpful while starting my photography business! In fact, I set aside time each week to read your articles…I consider it my “study” time each week. so, again..thank you!

After landing what I mistakenly thought was a “dream job” in marketing, I ‘lost” that job after only 5 days! The boss and I quickly realized we were NOT the match we thought. Understandably upset and now unemployed, I looked back at my life and I knew what I wanted. Having been a co-owner/artist assistant/marketing gal of an studio that included photography, pottery and altered art several years prior, I realized the desire, the dream the itch and the “want-to” to do artistic photography had never left waned! As I began to research for current trends, relevant information and yes, even some “advice” I found WOOTNESS!! Having read nearly everything Christine has posted AND looked at her website, her book and a couple of the links, I find myself educated, intrigued, enlightened, encouraged, amused and even inspired!! I think she “gets” people like me and how refreshing to discover someone else who kinda-sorta thinks like me!! I too consider my time on WOOTNESS, time very well spent as I reinvent my life as an artist! Thanks Christine….WOOT! WOOT! WOOT! WOOT! WOOT!
