Fun HomeComing Photos – What to Post?!


I’m working on the design of Anagi & Kokila’s wedding album. I’ve been working on it for the last several days. This morning, however, Lipton suggested I put some of Anagi and Kokila’s HomeComing photos up on FaceBook because he loves those photos and the colours! (And he wants to make more work for me!)

But rather than just post on FaceBook, I decided it calls for a LucysBuzz! --actually everything calls for a LucysBuzz!

Lipton took the photos of Anagi & Kokila and I edited them. The bride and groom are a fun couple and throughout their HomeComing Day, they didn’t lose their sense of humor.

My problem is choosing just a few of the photos. On first look I saved 70 (yes! 70!) images. Then I took it down to 42, then 26. Let’s see how many I end up with!

Google Google Google That Thing!


Several years ago we, ShadeTree Productions, were consistently listed on page 1 of Google under ‘Sri Lankan Wedding Photographers’ and then when Google changed their specs we dropped to page 17. It killed me!

I contacted several Sri Lankan companies to do some SEO (Search Engine Optimization) work for us, but they didn’t respond. Can you imagine? So I tried learning about SEO and just couldn’t comprehend it well enough. I then paid our website people to change our website from Flash-based to HTML-based. I learned enough to know that we needed to do that.

Revamping the website to fit Google's new specs took awhile. And then I began Lucy’sBuzz and 126 posts and 26,619 pageviews later, the HTML-based website, current updates to the website and constant updates to our FB page, plus now owning a smartphone and being mobile compatible, we are back on PAGE 1! And we are getting requests galore!

Amazing what hard work, armed with some tech knowledge, can do!

Thanks also to YOU for checking us out, for your requests for coverage of your weddings and events; for photography and videography.
We love you, our clients! Our readers! Our FB fans! THANK YOU!
