“Hi Uzair,

Just to let you know I’ve been working with your software for a week or so now and I’ve gone through all the video presentations.

I must say you have done a wonderful job with Filemaker.  Being from a programming background, I know just how much work you have put into the program, it’s certainly making my life a lot easier. As I’m getting busier these days, I was looking for something that ticked all the right boxes for me and didn’t set me back an arm and a leg. Anyway, babbling now, thanks for a great product and I’m sure it is worth its weight in Gold“

“Dear Uzair I would like to thank you and Foto SF team for the Foto SF software. As from this year, we decided to have a software to help us in expanding our business, and your software was an automatic choice, not due to our previous friendship, but due to the powerful software you and your team managed to produce for us photographers.

It sure is a software for photographers from a photographer who knows all the needs required. I must admit that, I am truly disappointed that I did not introduced Foto SF to my business before, but as they say, better late than never. So I strongly recommend this software to those interested to upgrade their photographic business.

I will promise you that I surely pass the word to my fellow Italian friends and collegues. Thanks and keep the good work towards us photographers.”

Martin Abela

Thank you Martin for your kind words. We really do appreciate it.

Here’s everything you need to know on how to generate FREE TARGETED TRAFFIC to your website. You’ll learn some cutting edge tips & tricks to get your website or blog optimised for higher rankings. You’ll also learn how to build relationships with your prospect and how to build a profitable database of subscribers. Best of all, what you will learn throughout the day does not require you to have any technical knowledge, geeky programming languages or any kind of expertise. Everything will be taught in simple language which is easy to follow.

Content includes:

Keyword Research

Most photographers start to blog or set up their website without doing any keyword research. They hope that magically, Google will place them on Page 1 !! This will not happen, you need to understand on-page optimization of key words & phrases. This is one of the most important process you MUST understand before you get your website online. Most small business owners leave it to their website designers to optimise their website with certain keywords. However, your web designer does not understand your business the way you do.You’ll learn how to research what kind of online competition you have and the amount of competing websites in your market / niche. Plus, you will learn how to research what people are searching for and how many people searched for your product or service in Google recently.

With these statistics, you will be miles ahead of the competition and on the way to being indexed in search engine result pages and being found by people looking for your product or service.

No keyword research = losing money.

Effective keyword research = more traffic + more money.

Website / Blogs

A website or a blog should work hard for you 24/7 365 days a year. You will learn good ‘house keeping’ for your site so it ticks all the boxes for the search engines resulting in higher page rankings.

You’ll learn why a blog is so important for your business and how to keep it updated with relevant and fresh content. Did you know that search engines penalise sites which are static and reward sites which are dynamic and updated with fresh content on a regular basis?

Using the correct keywords & phrases are vital for any site to be indexed, once you’ve done the keyword research, you won’t be wasting time & energy over less profitable keywords.

Marketing Your Website

With the explosion in social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Stumble Upon, Digg to name a few, you’ll discover how easy it is to get free and targeted traffic to your website.

Most business owners don’t use the power of You Tube to market their product or services.

I promise you won’t have to spend hours and hours on end on Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, etc to generate traffic to your site. In fact, I’ll share with you my ’1-click’ process which will create your online presence on some of the world’s top ranking websites.

Did you know that YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine & the 3rd biggest website in the world. Only a hand ful of small businesses are taking advantage of this incredible website to their advantage. Video is changing photography and also the internet. Over half the traffic online is now video traffic.

You will learn some incredible tips & tricks on how to get your YouTube marketing started. Do the work once and then drive perpetual traffic to your site forever. Learn how to create simple slideshows & movies using very inexpensive software & cameras which cost less than £100 ! See how videos like these are used to generate leads from your website.

Find out how a funny & crazy video below helped me get a lucrative contract with one of UK’s leading online retailers.

Email Marketing

When it comes to business, time really is money. Email marketing can be extremely effective; however, do you really have the time to make contact with every single potential client or previous client to offer new deals and services? Most busy business owners don’t have the time to do this, and this is where email marketing comes into play.

Email marketing effectively & automatically sends out marketing emails, auto-replies and follow-up sales letters on your behalf. This is pretty much a miracle in modern marketing techniques because it can effectively bring in sales on auto pilot, as well as make sure your clients don’t forget you. What are you waiting for? Set your sales machine on auto-pilot and start seeing results.

Testimonials

Being a good or great photographer just isn’t enough to bring in the work. Just like you use various softwares for post-processing & editing, you need a dedicated photography studio software to streamline your photography business. If you currently use spreadsheets, then you are not alone. Thousands of photographers use them daily. Spreadsheets are a good starting point, however, they are great at number crunching rather than analysing data to give you a bird’s eye view of your business.

Before deciding on which software to invest in, you should consider these options carefully:

Productivity

You need to work smarter rather than harder to streamline your workflow. A good & robust photography studio software should be able to effortlessly handle the day to day of running the business, reminders & things to do, sending quotations, making bookings, keeping track of clients & suppliers, setting up a series of workflow things for various jobs be it weddings, portraits, commercial or sporting events, updating & keeping track of all your events in one place.

Pricing & Support

Pricing & after sales support is extremely important. First decide how much you wish to spend on a photography studio software. Then make a list of 3-4 products and then see what the Support is offered after you purchase the software. Some offer a 30-day support, with some companies you need to go and attend expensive day workshops & seminars just to learn the software and get to grips with it and some offer unlimited free support. Also see on the website whether they have a phone number listed as very few websites offer this.

Marketing

You need to turbo charge your marketing efforts in these tough economic climate. One of the best and under-used marketing tools by photographers is Email Marketing. Every marketeer will say this ‘The money is in the list’. So the sooner you start to build an email list, the sooner you can start making money. Email marketing is something

Book Keeping

As a photographer you want a simple photography studio software to help you run your business which gives you a bird’s eye view of your business on a daily basis. What you want is an easy to use book keeping system to help you with your sales & purchases with a powerful enough reporting system to help you see where your business is heading.

I hope this gives you some ideas as to which photography studio software is right for you. I would welcome you to try Foto SF for free and see how it can help you to turbo charge your business.

Happy Thanks Giving…

To get started, you need to just first make sure your camera has right autofocus set up for continuous shooting. On pro cameras or older DSLR’s, make sure your camera is in “C” mode, or “Continuous Servo AF Mode” to give it the full title. This is done by a rocker switch on the side of the camera near the lens release button;

With the current generation of cameras, however, it has become a little more complex to perform this task. Instead of the options seen above, this same rocker switch will have two options “AF” and “M”. In all cases, “M” stands for manual focus but the “AF” option by default puts your camera in “Auto Area AF Mode {AF-A)” where the camera selects “Continuous Servo AF Mode” automatically if it detects that the subject you are trying to focus on is moving. This is fine for normal casual candid shooting but it unfortunately also puts your camera in charge of choosing what part of the scene to focus on in the first place. For action photography, you need to be able to select your focus point manually but still be in a position to exploit the full power of the autofocus system. The best way to do this is by selecting “Dynamic Area AF Mode”.

This is achieved in one of three ways;

With some cameras you will have to go into the Custom Menu or the Set-up Menu and make the choice there. On Pro cameras, there is a rocker switch with three symbols – the middle of which is for “Dynamic Area AF Mode”. With the most recent cameras, a third method that involves pressing the “AF Mode” button (on the side of the camera) and rotating the Sub-command (front) dial needs to be employed.
To understand how to master the “back button” professional autofocus technique, we will start by looking at a sequence of shots made using the shutter release to initiate AF in the normal way. Our camera is now in “Continuous AF” mode and “Dynamic Area AF” has been selected from the “AF-area Mode” options.

In the example above, we can see that an AF point off to the right side of the viewfinder has been selected. Depending upon the camera model you are using, when the camera achieves focus the AF point may light-up red or turn black. This is called “Lock on” and when shooting a moving subject, the camera will register both the subject distance and the direction it is traveling. In Dynamic Area AF mode, the camera will use this info to do “Predictive Focus Tracking” which means it anticipates where the subject is going to be and the new focus point will be selected automatically. Confirmation that the subject is locked in focus will also be given by a small green dot lighting up within the viewfinder.

As we move through the shots, pressing and releasing the shutter one frame at a time, there comes a moment as we can see in the third frame where the boy has moved away from coverage by the chosen AF point. Pressing the shutter release at this point will cause the AF mechanism to attempt to re-focus on the subject behind the red focus point and….

The result is pretty catastrophic – the AF mechanism tries to focus on the part of the scene where the chosen AF point is. Our running boy is no longer in focus.

However, most people would not follow a subject in this way taking one shot at a time. Instead, it is more likely that you would shoot in a continuous burst using either CL or CH shooting mode, with the shutter fully depressed throughout the sequence. In this mode, the camera’s AF mechanism would have locked on the subject and followed the boy using “Focus Tracking” , calling into play other AF points that cover the boy as he moves.

The AF points indicated in yellow in the illustration above are some of the ones used by the camera to check on the subject’s distance and in turn to provide instruction to the lens as to the new focus point. Please note; these points do not actually illuminate when they become active. Although autofocus is better when the camera is in continuous shooting mode, there is still potential for things to go wrong. For example, when shooting short bursts of three or four frames at a time and removing your finger from the shutter release button momentarily. The danger is that in these instances, autofocus can be lost. Restarting AF again by pressing the shutter release would, as in the single frame example above, give your camera a new instruction – and it would assume you want to focus on the AF point you originally selected.

To ensure that the subject remains in focus all through the sequence – even through the times when you are not taking pictures but just following the subject through the viewfinder – you need to keep autofocus working. You need it to perform focus tracking and continuously sending new instructions to the lens to keep up. To do this, you must separate the functions of releasing the shutter and initiating AF. This is the primary reason for using the back button. Initiating AF by pressing and holding down the Back Button allows you to shoot either in Single frame or Continuous shooting modes without the risk of sudden re-focussing taking place. The camera is receiving ongoing instructions from you to maintain focus as long as you keep your finger on the AF-ON button. In this way, the full technical power of the AF mechanism is brought into play. Here’s how to make the back button work effectively on those models that have a dedicated AF-ON button. First, a Custom Menu option is selected;

The camera’s default setting will be indicated in yellow. Select “AF-ON only” and press “OK” and you will have separated the two functions. Now part depressing the shutter release will no longer activate AF. Only by pressing the back button (AF-ON) will the subject be brought into sharp focus and the AF mechanism start to track your subject through the sequence. It will continue doing this as long as you keep pressing the button and the subject remains within the viewfinder AF frame area.

For those cameras like the Nikon D80/90, D3000, D5000 and D7000 that do not have a dedicated “AF-ON” button, it is still possible to separate the two functions and use one of the other back buttons to initiate AF.

Where there is only one, it is most likely to be the “AE-L/AF-L “ button which locks Auto Exposure (AE-L) and Auto Focus (AF-L). In your camera’s Custom Menu you will have an option under the section “f: Controls” (in some camera’s it is in the ‘Setup Menu: Buttons’ ). Here you will find the option to “Assign AE-L/AF-L Button” to “AF-ON”. Selecting this option will provide the same functionality as the purpose-designed AF-ON button found on professional camera models.

Putting this technique into practice can be a little difficult at first but if you persevere, it will pay dividends and improve your sports, wildlife or any kind of action photography. However, using the back button for static shots like portraits or landscapes can seem unnecessary, if not a little awkward, as it requires you to use two digits instead of one and think AF first and release second. But many pro shooters use it for all their photography because taking your finger off the back button will now lock the focus point. Normally, this requires you to press the AE-L /AF-L button. This is handy for preventing unwanted re-focussing and is especially useful when using telephoto lenses without a tripod.
