Sometimes the cost of wedding photography can be high in price. Every bride wants that perfect picture that captures that special day, but can not afford to pay through the roof for it. By following these few simple budgeting ideas you can save money on wedding photography.

Advertising for the right person

An excellent place to advertise is at a local college or university They will have fresh skills and ideas when it comes to wedding photography, and they will cost a lot less.

Digital Over Prints

Go digital instead of getting prints. This keeps your hard earned money in your pocket. You can now choose this as an option because most photographers will offer you the idea. Get a CD rather then prints and proofs of all your pictures. After you receive your CD look at online photo developers to print to photos for you.

Design your own wedding album

A great way to personalize all your pages in your album is to try scrap booking. No one will know your wedding and guests like you do. Scrap booking your wedding photography is a great way to go through your pictures and reflect on the moments. You will enjoy creating your album and not only that but you will also save hundreds of dollars opposed to having your photographer design an album, and they may not include pictures that your friends sent you as well.

Watch the time

How long do you really need your photographer around you? Instead of having them come with you when you re getting your hair done, make up done, and dress sized just get them to come for the ceremony and a bit of the celebration afterwards. Your bridesmaids will be able to take the pictures of the preparation for you and you will be surprised how many other people will send you their copies as well.

Disposable Cameras

Another excellent idea is disposable cameras. After everything is said and done all you have to do is drop them off at a photo development outlet, then go through the ones you really like and make larger prints for frames around your house. You will probably end up getting a few funny photos but a lot of wonderful ones as well. This will also give you a wide variety of pictures because your guests will be taking pictures of each other and not just at the bride and groom. Adding more detail to your album.

In ancient civilizations, it was common for gold and silver ornate jewelry to adorn many a wrist. These days, its rubber bracelets that are all the rage. While these wristbands may not cost a pretty penny- or other barterable equivalent, their value in terms of expressiveness is quite extensive. These colorful rubber rings are worn all over the world to symbolize an individuals solidarity with others in their efforts to fight a variety of social problems and diseases; cancer, violence against women and children, diabetes, hunger, poverty, and war are a few.

While in ancient times, wrist adornment was a matter of social standing, in the modern world rubber wristbands are worn by politicians, actors, military personnel, and athletes alike, regardless of race, nationality or creed. In Barack Obamas 2008 presidential campaign, he donned a black (metal) wristband given to him by the mother of a young man who was killed in the Iraq War as a sign of remembrance.

In the early 2000s, a wristband wearers cause was distinguishable by the color of the band:

A purple wrist band: signified the fight against domestic violence

A pink rubber bracelets: signified the desire to wipe out breast cancer.

A bright yellow band: In 2004, world champion cyclist Lance Armstrong began his „Livestrong“ campaign against cancer by a wearing a bright yellow band.

Wristbands usually cost no more than $1 and as more and more charitable organizations join the wristband bandwagon, it is easy to find a rubber bracelet that will help you express your support of any cause.

Students at Bellflower High School, in Bellflower, California recently raised over $100 in just one afternoon selling beaded bracelets for charity for one dollar a piece. They plan to donate the money raised in selling these homemade bracelets to efforts in modern India to offer disadvantaged children needed cleft palate surgery though the organization Smile Train.

Though todays wristbands are a means to deal with some very serious causes, they are usually worn quite casually. This was not the case in ancient Rome, China, and India where these bracelets were taken more seriously.

In Greek culture, women would adorn their arms above and below the elbow with wrappings of gold or silver, perfect accents to their flowing gowns and elaborate hairstyles. Often these bracelets would be detailed with animals such as lions or snakes to ward off evil spirits. Conversely, Greek men wore metal or thick leather cuffs along the forearms to protect their arms during deadly fights on the battlefields.

In China, wrist adornment was as much a part of a kings wardrobe as his silk robes or head coverings might be. Kings, and other members of the aristocracy, wore bracelets decorated with precious stones, dragons, and phoenixes as signifiers of affluence.

Indian women in bygone eras, just as today, wore gold bangles to show that they are married. Many would wear multiple bangles of many materials, styles and colors for adornment and to symbolize their husbands affluence.

The movie depicts the war between good and evil, killing and survival. Various characters are used to present an awesome action movie. Amongst them, good role is played by Autobots whereas Decepticons are playing the evil part. To project the goodness of soul, physically strong characters like Ironhide are created.

Like rest of the Autobots, Ironhide is made to look unbeatably strong. Apart from the other fellow Autobots, it is evident from his conduct that he is arrogant. His anger projecting nature makes him stubborn against the evil forces, and he fights the Decepticons with complete determination.

The character of Ironhide is made with utmost perfection, his height, his body mass, and his voice; all compliment the traits of his powerful physical and moral character. He is an important part of NEST: Network Elements: Supporters and Transformers. These Supporters are humans which have collaborated with the Autobots to help them in their mission of saving the world and humanity. It is an international teamwork combining the two on one platform.

Ironhide is a likeable character, his dialogues and momentous nature makes him all the more lovely to the viewers. In the movie Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, John Turturro has uttered his brawny voice. Ironhide is incarnate in silver steel colour that adds up to his elegant and definite looks.

He is quick and efficient in his moves and combats with the enemy with perfection. Timing is his best attribute; he makes the right decision on the right time: when to attack an enemy and destroy the evil. He is able to transform himself in to a GMC Topkick.

The action macho is not as tall as his fellows are, though he projects efficiency in both the parts of the movie; Transformers 2007, and Transformers 2. He has been introduced in the second part: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, as the weapons specialist of the Autobots. Keeping this responsibility in view, it can be said that he has been rightly named, or vice-versa, he has been given the right duty.

One brilliant eminence of the character Ironhide is that he becomes infuriated on certain things just like the teenagers. This manner gives him a touch of being childlike and gives a hint towards his age (which is quite an overjoyed thought about a robot). Along with all the other Autobots and Decepticons (mechanical characters), Ironhide has been developed. We can see all of them being tailored with new versions of cars/ trucks, fighter planes, guns, and combating tools. Many of us do not get a break to see versions of these in real life which we can see and enjoy in reel-life.

The high definition and technology based movie thrills us all with its action sequences which are truly original. Scene depictions have been done so professionally that it is hard to believe that all that is a made up version for the screen. All of it looks so real, and for that reason people are attracted towards the movie.

An independent consultant (IC) is just that; a one-off on his own. The list of the disadvantages of being an independent consultant always feels phenomenal if you are one of the ordinary rank-and-file who has to earn enough money to fund the work of the business (phone bills, stationery, postage, motor car bills) and support some kind of a family.

There is an endless challenge of being expected to keep coming up with new ideas, a new initiative, for achieving this or that breakthrough in promotion or business presentation or operating economies. You are often expected to know everything in your niche, or at least where and how you can research it. Thank goodness for the Internet and the likes of Google – except you must always keep in the back of your mind the likelihood that at least two of the bosses have young children who have already found for their father at least three definitive websites that you might have missed, and they will be waiting to trap you in the boardroom. Not always out of any intended personal malice I might add.

The big challenge can be the work-load. If successful, it can be busy and intense. You and your consulting business survive in the long term by taking on numerous clients at any one time, on the basis that if you lose one client you still have enough income to avoid going bust.

However as an independent consultant you cannot tell any of your clients that they will have to be priority two or three for your time and attention. They will all expect to be priority one – your most important client.

Hence working into the night and all through every weekend can quickly become the norm, And the very worst nightmare is the client who, on Wednesday, finally remembers to tell you that he and all his directors and managers will be going away on Friday night to stay at a seaside hotel for a two-day intensive review of company practice and „hope“ you will be able to be with them. And you had been planning to do so many other important things.

It is even likely that none of them are even aware of the others for whom you are working and, generally speaking, it is best kept that way.

You might be in a busy city, where there are many poential clients, and also probably many consultants competing for their business. But if you are in a small-town environment. where perhaps you get a better quality of life, you could be in trouble if Client A asks you to come to an important meeting to discuss how to combat the bright new initiatives that have been launched by rival Company B, completely unaware that Company B is indeed another one of your clients and his bright new initiative is part of a business plan which you had developed for them, and now you are under orders to find a way to sabotage it.

It is always good to read about Max Clifford and his adept handling of one of his high-profile celebrity cases for which he is getting a celebrity-level fee that will see him ‚OK at the bank‘ for some while to come. But for the ordinary independent consultant it can often feel there are more disadvantages to being an independent consultant than there are advantages.

1.) Offer free stuff.

Many people would not mind exchanging their email addresses for something useful that can help them solve a problem or handle a certain concern. Hence, by offering to send freebies to their emails, you easily acquire more names to build your email list with. Examples of ideal freebies are self-help e-books, free newsletter subscriptions, and a freebie for every product purchase they make.

2.) Allow visitors to publish your articles.

Another effective tactic is writing articles that are free for publishing as long as the visitor officially requests for permission. Your site should have a request form where they will be required to enter their email addresses, names and other details.

3.) Tell them why they should join your list.

The reason behind the fact that many individuals refrain from subscribing to „free“ stuff is because they think that these „free“ stuff are actually free spam. Hence, if you want them to subscribe, substantiate why your newsletters are not like those of others. You can present some testimonials from earlier members and older issue samples. To make sure that your visitors will even bothering opening your email in the first place, be sure that the subject of your email will trigger the interest of your reader. Furthermore, for your reader to finish reading the entire article and get excited about the next issue, your newsletters must be well-written and must provide fresh, informative content.

4.) Apply the basics of search engine optimization.

See to it that all written content in your website are embedded with the correct keywords so that when people search for reference materials and information about subjects pertinent to your content, the search engines can easily find your articles and direct readers to your site. Be careful though, because too much appearance of the same keywords can be considered as keyword „stuffing“ and you might even get penalized for it. Remember also to rename web page titles. Most internet marketers do not realize that web page titles are usually something like „824%_88.html“ or „page1.html“. If you fail to rename them, search engines will not be able to locate your articles easily.

5.) Administer a „membership drive“

Run a membership drive by asking your visitors to help you invite more people to visit your website by letting them send invite emails to friends. This requires them to enter the email addresses of their friends. To inspire them to invite many, give a special prize for whoever get the most number of people to sign up. This way, the amount of email addresses you get doubles up and in no time, your list will expand astoundingly.

When your blueprint for the future means monetary consistency, you might want to begin your own business. Home based income residual can release you from a future of hard work and little pay. By definition, residual income is cash that you get frequently for an item you produced or marketed once.

Life insurance policies provide agents with a constant flow of residual. Establish a good rapport with your consumer and keep nurturing the relationship. This will guarantee that your pockets will be lined by the monthly or annual renewals of life and term insurance. Your agent did what you need to do, lure the client in, seal the deal and then look after the customer. If you do this, you’ll easy see a stream of cash coming in.

Try to establish the need to purchase frequently. Sell things that require renewal. Bond with your customer base and keep them happy. When you do, they will reward you with return business and keep your home based residual pouring in. Lifelong business provides a handsome reward to the business owner.

Don’t know where to start creating your own livelihood? The internet is full of opportunities. One that seems constant is to offer electronic reading materials. When you provide these booklets, try to incorporate other avenues for customer success and residual flow for yourself. Write on topics that are pertinent to your audience. Offer tips and suggestions on how to become a successful work from home individual. Then give your readers other options to increase their own monetary gain. Give options that you or another partner can offer as a premium.

If you’re interested in getting into the vitamin and health related pills industry, maintain a consistent supply base. When you stock up on the merchandise that sells the most, you can expect steady business. If your merchandise can be used up and bought again, you’ve got yourself moving in the direction of residual income. Once you get a devoted following, the money will rush in!

Drive business with associations that call for weekly or monthly dues. If you create a well oiled machine, the recurring business will practically run and sell itself. Beauty and healthcare products seem to draw the biggest consumer base for this sort of operation. You can rely on an increasing income flow from this sort of home based business.

Selling specialty related services; you can increase your current income as well as provide for a comfortable future. Stock brokers and job head hunters can earn long term recurring payments. When recruiting the perfect candidate for an open position, make sure that you have consulted with the hiring company regarding residual. Fees can be paid to head hunters by either party but are often only paid by the corporation, not the person. Roll residuals into your agreement and enjoy being a third party entrepreneur.

The what and why of the situation doesn’t matter in your home based business as long as the products speak for themselves. Come up with new and exciting goods and you are sure to enjoy home based residual income!

How come anytime you walk in to a book store and find your way to the business or financial books all the views that are expressed in the titles are very similar??? In one way or another they all call out for a monetary version of bloodshed. I mean think about the titles: „How you can crush the other guy“or „it’s not personal its business“, „How to come out on top“ etc etc. When I got into the real estate investment game I spent hours trying to find the one book that would teach me how to become that REAL ESTATE INVESTING GOD I knew I could become. After reading most of the popular books at the time I actually would feel beat up over the content. I mean did I have to be a „take no prisoners“ type of investor? Did I have to prey on some one else’s misfortune?? The answer was no. So I set out to build a list of my own investment rules. I think we each should have our own set of investment rules. Doc’s Rules for investing:

1) Your personal guidelines: Define and follow some personal guidelines. This is the most important rule I have. These guidelines define the investments I will go after as well as the amount of investment I’m willing to part with to get it. It outlines my investment tactic as well as how I want to conduct my the business of this investment Things to include are: Top dollar amount and lowest dollar amount. Type of investment you want to deal with. Period of term for investment.. Etc etc. (Between you and me I even have a guideline about the amount of time I will work per-day)

2) Remember a family is behind the deal you’re working on. Simply put,whoever you are dealing with has mouths to feed. Just because you can get a great deal on a house because the current owner is in a facing some sort of adversity that is causing them to sell below market value, DOES NOT give you license to kick them when they are down. Treat everyone with dignity and respect. If the price they are offering still falls within the personal investing guidelines you have set for yourself ,don’t use your position to abuse the seller. If you?re getting the house for .40 cents on the dollar,don’t be a jerk and push for .20 cents. Always remember…it could be you in the sellers postion. (This rule DOES NOT come in to play when dealing with a bank owned property)

3) Always ask for what you want. Why can’t you ask for something in an investment deal you like, For example. You’re looking at a piece of real estate,ask the seller if they would be willing to throw in new carpet to the sale. I met a investor who was looking at a house that had been on the market for several months. When he went to talk to the seller he happen to see a 1954 Merc Coupe in the garage, so he asked if it was included in the deal. The deal eventually closed for the house AND the car. 4) Make bird dogs. I always give several of my business cards to anyone I do business with and offer them a portion of any profit I make from any investments they help me locate. You would be amazed at how many people will help you make money when they get a small part of it. (And if you follow rule #2 you will be amazed at how many of those bird dogs will sing your praises from the highest mountains)

These are just some ideas of things to keep in mind when you’re working on your investment mindset. These rules have worked well for me over the years,and in more cases then not, have gotten me more return and repeat networking opportunities then I can count.
