In Support of Small Business: South Florida Photography

Energy, money, knowledge, and time are each valuable and necessary commodities in any business. As a small business owner, I'm constantly practicing to balance these resources. So in celebration of "Small Business Saturday," "Cyber Monday" and "I Don't Care what Day it is I just want a Good Deal Day," I thought I'd invest in writing this blog.

Please note: The last day may not yet be recognized as official on all calendars. Also, I may have just made it up.

In hopes of helping you to receive something valuable, here are a few ways of how to best support a local business, today. i.e. Monica McGivern Photography!

Upward and Onward!
The best part about supporting a small business is that it builds a network of people that can connect and become successful TOGETHER!  

As any small business owner knows, success doesn't happen alone. I am incredibly grateful for my clients, mentors, colleagues, and all of the opportunities operating a small business allows to learn and grow into being my best self.

At the core of my values, I believe that my success is dependent on helping others. Going forward,  do you have a project that could use a creative mind? Whether it's a new family portrait, headshot, promotional photo, or an event, please contact me to start our creative collaboration for all of your photographic needs.

Last but not Least: Feedback is ALWAYS appreciated.
Photo ideas. Constructive criticism. Moral support. Philosophical epiphanies. Recommendations of the best new book. Critiques of classic music albums. I value what YOU have to say! Please don't hesitate to comment even if it's just to say "hi!"

Thank You, for reading!!
