It’s a giveaway!

I’ve been teasing it for about a week now on all my social media, but Andrew Smith Photography is getting a brand new look with a brand new website! This blog won’t change much since I’ve already made minor adjustments, but I’m so excited to show you all I’ve been working on for the last couple months! 

Almost two years ago I launched my current site, and for a while it served me well. Since then I have refined my style, there have been new  internet upgrades, and I started to feel like it was becoming a little outdated.

Why I chose to “PASS”

The days of

mailing out DVDs and
flashdrives are finally behind me! No more e-mails from clients telling
me they lost their flash drive…No more phone calls telling me their
DVD is scratched and they need another copy… No more of that! 🙂 A few

watching their introductory video and viewing other photographers PASS
galleries I was sold. I knew there was no way I could miss the
opportunity to utilize this for my business. Okay…so what is PASS???
Simply, it’s a program of awesomeness that allows you to deliver clients
their photos as soon as you’re finished editing them.
