With so many students and maybe even masters of logic around I am a little 
hesitant to explain that as my question was posed as a rhetorical question with 
the underlying purpose of provoking smiles rather than frowns I do not need to 
define my terms. Michael in Norwich

                Yes to both points.

                I do sometimes put my web addy on the image but not always; 
                I need to get better about it.

                  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.
