Happy 2010! On behalf of my family and myself, I’d like to thank everyone for their support over the past year. I got to know some great people this year and I’m really looking forward to all of the amazing weddings that I’m going to be a part of in the coming year, I can’t wait.

I’d like to wish everyone a safe and great 2010!

I just wanted to share a quick post on what’s going on. To start, I’ve created this new blog which I’m really excited about. My goal is to make it easier for clients to find me, to find what they’re looking for and to get a sense of who I am. I’m still in the process of migrating from the old site so your patience is appreciated.
This will definitely won’t be the final look of the site, but I had to get started sometime and with something.

That’s it for now so check back soon.

Over the past month or so I’ve seen a huge increase in the amount of junk email that I’ve been receiving and while I like to have a full inbox I’m getting a little tired of the messages urging me to buy this or that. As a result, I’ve been working with my host provider to try and block most if not all of the junk messages.

This leads me to the bigger issue of spam and email filters in general. There may be instances where you may send me a message from your Hotmail, Gmail or Yahoo mail account and I may never receive it. It may get inadvertently blocked and would never know. Likewise, I may send you an email and it may end up in your spam or junk mail folder. Now I promise that I’m not sending out spam messages, but please do check your junk or spam folder from time to time.

Bottom line is that if you’ve sent me an email and you don’t get a reply back within 24 hours, something is wrong. Unless I’m away for the day shooting or on personal business, I almost always respond to an email within a few hours, if not sooner. The best way to contact me would be to give me a call at 905-924-1730 so we can chat, I promise I don’t bite. Otherwise, please use the contact form on the main website at MJP Photography and include all of the good details.

Ok here we go again. I have to first say that I’m sorry for not updating this blog in a long while. I fell off the blog wagon, literally. We’ll I’m back on now and there is so much to update you all with I won’t be able to tell you everything in one post. Over the upcoming days and weeks I’ll bring you up to speed with what’s been going on around here, what’s new with MJP Photography, and what I have in store for my clients.

First, the renovations are complete for the most part. To say things didn’t go as planned would be an understatement but looking at the upside we’re happy with the results. As you’ll see from the photos below, we’re still in the process of getting the place furnished but its coming. If you’re planning your wedding and would like to setup a time to meet with me, please let me know and you’re more than welcome to come over.

You may also be looking at the walls and be thinking that Mike, the walls are bare. Where are all of your photos? Patience grasshopper, I’m in the process of sourcing a supplier that will install a hanging wire system on the blank wall (last photo) so that I’ll be able to easily show some beautiful prints and be able to update and change them easily.

I’ve come to accept the fact of life that there will always be something to do, nothing is ever actually complete, but that’s ok, and I’m ok with that now.

Check back soon.

For my readers that follow this blog you’re probably wondering what happened with the construction project. Well let me say here that I haven’t forgotten about it, and I didn’t stop working on it but it has definitely been on hold for way too long. The story unfortunately is way too long for me to even get into here, and I really don’t want to relive the pain. For those that don’t know me I’m being sarcastic here. Seriously it has been crazy and this should have been finished months ago but here we are and it’s almost February.

Now for some good news. I went and paid a visit to the new Lowes on the corner of Taunton and Garrard and I am pleased to announce that the flooring is now in the building. Over the course of this weekend I hope to have it fully installed so if all goes well I’ll have some photos to share with you soon. After that I just have to finish some trim work and then we can start setting up. I can’t wait!!
