Tag Archives: togs Ok, so we’ve all seen location-based mobile apps like Gowalla, Yelp, and Foursquare rise to popularity quickly over the past year. Checking in to your favorite locations to get those shiny badges or the possibility of becoming mayor of your local Starbucks is just all too enticing to resist. However, what’s the point of all...

Awesome! Yeah I think it’s going to work WONDERS for photographers who actually have a physical studio. However with places you could actually create a “virtual” studio, in that it’s wherever your shooting location is going to be that day. Now if only Facebook allowed us to check in at a GPS coordinate instead of a physical location….now that would draw in everyone including photographers without a physical studio location. Sweet post!

Thanks, Nick! That’s a great idea. However if you create a “Place” when you’re shooting out in the field, wouldn’t that leave a studio’s permanent place at that location? I have plans to franchise my business, but this might be overload, lol! I’m just excited to see how others use this feature :) August 21, 2010 - 9:28 pm
Dustin, You know you’re my techy photog idol (hence the stalking) so I am not surprised you are opening my eyes to yet another cool social media thingy on the horizon. I’ll be interested to see it’s functionality first hand. Thanks for the 411, Dustin. Great post. Leigh August 21, 2010 - 9:31 pm
You know I couldn’t be noticed without at least one fan, Leigh! Thanks so much for your comments! Has Facebook Places been made available in your area yet? It’ll be neat to see more ways people take advantage of all this nerdy tech stuff :) August 22, 2010 - 1:20 am
An interesting topic since many people have using the feature on Facebook since the launch time. I guess when you tag your client while you do a consultation or photo-shoot, it might bring prospect clients to be able to connect to you if they are in the area and see you are in action.

When it comes to weddings, I feel like many of us are scrambling to maintain a fine balance between shooting for our clients, our vendors, and our publications. But where to draw the line?
