I have and I LOVED them. However, my version of Lion OS doesn't support them. Had I realized how much I'd miss them I never would have done the upgrade.

Woe is me……

Yeah have you used droplets?   You make an action in PS then you can save it as a droplet anywhere on you desktop or where ever then you can process my drag and drop.   You can even story them on a flash drive and take them with you if you might be working on a computer not your own.    So anything you can action your can make a droplet.   Its the geek way haha.

Lea, 

1. this work good as far as yur work is good.

2. About the stolen pictures from your FB pages - you have to put your web address at the bottom of each image (on the image) so it will be handy to every one who like your work.

My website had a 'blog' link that takes the viewer to my professional FB page. My web address is on everything my clients receive.

I post at least one portrait from every session to my Facebook page…usually within the hour of doing the session. This creates interest from the parents (I photograph newborns, infants, children) as they can 'share' the image on their wall, tag family members and leave comments for me.

When the image is shared to a parent's 'wall' it becomes visible to all that parent's friends which creates more interest in the portrait and my work.

I can't tell you how many clients I have who come to me because they saw my portrait on their friend's wall…even though they haven't seen their friend since high school or college.

I used to do a blog featuring a portrait from each session but the ability to share the images on Facebook opened up a whole new world.

I do know that these images are often 'stolen' and saved to phones and iPads. I got over that in a hurry once I realized how proud people are of their children and how often they show the images to friends which, in turn, generates interest in my work.

If a parent sends me a new client, that parent receives a $50 referral credit which can be used on any product I offer in the studio. They get a little something andy I get a new client. Works wonderfully. I stopped advertising about four years ago.

Lea, how do you promote your facebook page that it results in responses? What is your demographic?
