I know I haven’t posted much lately, but I’ve been swamped. I know, lame excuse. Hopefull, I’ll be able to play catch-up.
I really had fun with these guys. This first one is their Christmas card photo. I love it when my favorite is my clients favorite too.
Jerry, available for portrait sessions. There’s still time for holiday portraits.
There is lots going on at Frazier Photography central! Unfortunately I’ve been a bad blogger because it’s been so crazy. But, today I’m not doing any work, except for this one little blog.
What am I thankful for today?
I started out saying that there is lots going on…I am thankful for that, for sure. I am thankful for all my clients who love my work.
I am thankful for my family and that we are happy and healthy!
The rest of everything else all eminates from those things.
If you have nothing else, as long as you have love, you have it all!
Have an awesome Thanksgiving!
Cheers,
Jerry
This has to be the coolest video ever. This was posted on a photography chat board a while back by Kelly Moore, a photographer out of Louisiana. I hope she doesn’t mind that I posted it here (I doubt it since she put it on You Tube), but I think it’s so cool.

I have re-released all my 2007 online wedding galleries. So, if I shot your wedding in 2007, your gallery is up and active through Decmeber 15th, 2007. Your password is still the same as it was before. If you don’t remember your password, shoot me an email, and I’ll send it to you. The best part is that the galleries have a 25% discount on all orders over $50. 
Prints make great gifts for friends and family.
Happy Holidays!
Enjoy,

I never in my life thought I would see this day:
WOW!
Go Dodgers!
Here’s the news coverage of it: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21570821/
In short, this is going to affect us all who enjoy a little TV time. The first casualties will be the late night shows such as Jay Leno and David Letterman. After that, reality TV, and reruns will be shown more. After that, you’ll see less movies next summer. The last strike lasted 22 weeks. That’s a long time.
The issue is that the writers feel they need to be compensated for DVD sales, as well as other media such as podcasts and things of that nature. They deserve every penny. The writers work hard to create value for the studios and the studios need to recognize this.

I just finished reading a book entitled “The Power of Nice: How to Conquer the Business World with Kindness” by Linda Kaplan Thaler and Robin Koval.
What a power house book. I highly recommend it for reading. The premise is that being nice is just simply easier than any other method of getting business done. It explains how the common belief is being stern in business is good for the bottom line. But, the book goes through many scenarios that prove that this just isn’t true. Thoughout the book, there are excercises, called “nice cubes”, which give you the opportunity to go out and practice being nice. One thing the book makes clear is that being nice is NOT about being a doormat. It’s more about respecting others as much as you respect yourself. My favorite section was at the end when it talks about listening. As they mention, Larry King once said, “I have never learned anything while I was talking.”
There’s a story in book where a guy was driving home from work everyday. Along the way was this homeless guy always on the same corner. Everyday he would stop and give the guy whatever change he had in his pocket. This had gone on for quite a while. One day, he was driving home, and he saw the guy dressed in a suit. The guy came up to his car, and thanked him and had said that the money he had collected allowed him to get back on his feet and get a job. I thought it was a pretty powerful story about how simple kindness can make a huge difference in someone elses’s life.
I highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to improve thier nice factor, or that just want to see how to possibly take their businesses or careers to the next level.
Enjoy,
Jerry
