Bev,
very interesting interview and it was good to see more of your work. To me, the two key comments were running the business as if it were a business and finding your creative niche.

We have always focused on the photography business from an economic point of view and I think we have a solid understanding of our cost/price ratios. I'm still struggling with establishing a singular creative identity. At least in the pet portraiture part of the business. There isn't much room for individual expression in the dog show formal business.

Thanks for your thoughtful comments and for helping me refocus my creative side.

Jim
