It took two different printers and many headaches, but the new promo cards to start off my 2010 promotional campaign have finally arrived. For this set of promo cards, I decided to keep the design simple and clean to reflect the branding in place on my website. I also chose to go with only two photos to keep their size large and to reflect the direction I’m taking my work over the next year. Now just to finish up the mailing list for 2010 and lick a bunch of envelopes!

Earlier this year, while we were creating her modeling site, Jazmin started discussing the possibility of taking her business online to reach a larger audience. We both agreed that it would be a great move for her and set out to create the site a couple months ago.

My initial thought was that the site wouldn’t be that difficult to create. I had managed many projects just like this one when I was a web development project manager. Though that thought lacked the realization that in those projects I wasn’t the team member doing the actual development portion and I was now developing on a product I hadn’t previously worked with. Even so, the project went pretty smoothly and the site started to take shape.

Time came to photograph the products. I had the lights setup, camera in hand and started shooting a few frames. Jazmin had something in mind, took the camera and ended up shooting all the initial product shots… and they turned out pretty good. It was a running joke for a while that she kicked the resident photographer in the house to the curb and did all her own work.

This weekend Jazmin finished entering the product inventory and flipped the switch. We’re both really happy with the initial site. We have a few upgrades in mind, including a spanish translation for all our friends in Mexico. Watch for that and a few new features in the coming months. For now, go check out the site, and buy something! Many of the pieces are one-of-a-kinds… and the girl needs to fill her shoe-fund!

Jazmin will have a selection of her jewelry line at the Girls of Rocky Point Calendar shoot this weekend in Puerto Penasco! Her jewelry will also be featured in many of the photographs that make it into the calendar. If you’ll be in Puerto Penasco this weekend and see something you like on the site, let her know to avoid the international shipping fees.

After quite a few revisions and going back and forth on the photo, last week I sent them over to the printer and this morning I picked them up. Loving the new design.
