business cards

Today I looked at possible photographs for my business cards, however, because I want to focus mainly on  still life in my future work, I am unsure if i should be using all still life work or trying to use a variety of my images from both before my degree course and during the course. Using landscape, still life and portraiture.

I have also looked at the size of cards I want to use and decided on mini cards. These are much smaller than normal business cards but I like the idea of using something more unusual so that perhaps my cards may make people stop and really look at them.

Business Card

This weekend I have been researching the idea of my business card for my uni project. Do I want a plain and simple design or one with a interesting shape and colour? Because I have the hope of eventually possibly working in still life or possible PR then I am struggling for a relavant picture for the business card. They are so far apart in terms of areas of Photography that I think I need to chose one or the other?
I will continue looking ones I find in shop and left by people in shop windows to advertise their services to get an idea of what sort of thing I want to use.

Website

I have found a great site which shows you exactly what photography exhibitions are on in London or various area's depending where you wish to look for. It provides information about the time the galleries are open to and how long the exhibitions are on till.

This is the website: http://www.spoonfed.co.uk

Street Photography

At the museum of London:
150 London Wall, London, EC2Y 5HN, England

On between 18th Feb-4th Sept 2011
This looks like a great exhibition to visit and it is on for a long period time too. The idea of Street photography really interests me and i am going to try and visit this before it ends. Street Photography plays a great part in our history of photography and this genre is definitely worth taking a look at.
