The Launch of Modern Dwellings

About four months ago I started looking into additional ways to make a few bucks as a photographer. I wanted to be able to freely promote myself without conflicting business wise with the studio. So I made up Modern Dwellings Real Estate Photography. I made a website for it and some postcards and started talking to realtors and home builders. I really hate to talk to much about it right now because I get sort of superstitious about it, but so far it's been going pretty well. I'm getting some pretty big jobs that I can't wait to share in that typical photographer's blog BTS video stuff.

What this project has really opened my eyes up to, is that I know NOTHING about business. But I'm fixing that. Reading, reading and more reading.

However, here's the conundrum that I came up against this week. I no longer have the conflict between me and the studio, but now that I've set this up as it's own entity, do I roll with it, and treat the real estate stuff independently of the portrait, wedding and family photography or what? I don't want one to suffer because of the other and if one really takes off I hope to pull the other along with it. I gotta think more on that....
