The New Name

I've had a few people ask about my name change, so I felt the need to let everyone know. I would have loved to use my name for my business. However, in trying to purchase a domain name, I found out that Jennifer White was very popular. In fact, it was too popular. I needed to move on and it was quite the struggle.

After many, many months of trying to think of something, a friend of mine gave me some good advise that just made the name pop into my head. She said that I should try to focus on the style of photography I'm interested in and come up with a name based on that. Well, I love doing maternity, hence the pickles....however, I feel that I'm interested in doing much more....pearls, in my opinion, shows a sign of maturity and class. So, my thoughts....Pickles to Pearls...and everything in between.

So there you have it....

I've Been Published!!

I was very excited to find out that one of my photos was selected to be published in the Washington DC version of Schmap. My photo was selected, from my Flickr photostream about a month ago, for their short list to be in their August issue. I was notified by their managing editor that I was selected and needed to let them know if it was something I was interested in. Well isn't that what any aspiring photographer would want...to be published...of course I agreed. I honestly didn't think I got picked because of all the time that past. They said August issue and here it is mid August already. I was pleasantly surprised to open my email this morning and find that I was, indeed, selected. Below is the photo that was selected and the link to publication. To the right is a sidebar of Schmap Washington DC.
