Discuss the fun task of marketing a t-shirt shop. Where to advertise, link building, word of mouth, press releases, search engine marketing, keyword advertising, magazines, etc.
The hoody is 'addicted to powder' in the chopping it up slope-style definition... however to put a bit of a spin on it, the photo is supposed to show a little white powder on the trade...in the amy winehouse fashion. get it? I hope that makes it a little clearer.
Greg ... just tell her, it's either shoot her in your tees, or cough up the $150-300 to a model, LOL. Please post, when you get some more up!
Chris ... yeah, that makes much more sense ... the completely hooded model to the right, still looked off, to me. But, taking another look at it, today ... it does force the eyes to the white hoodie, and the design. Is that graffiti for the backdrop? Whatever it is, it fits nicely.
Jason ... nice work all around. The middle one really captures that grungy "agressive" feel ... keeping pushing that type of look. And the tee designs are really close to the stuff I like to sell.

Actually, we found some pretty decent models on craigslist (I'm cheap... I mean frugal), but I didn't want to pay somebody even a little money for something she could do free (Ok, I am cheap!)

Oh, I've got LOTS more, but I'll only post these 3 of my wife and hope she doesn't see them (remember, the baby weight thing!), or I'm a dead man!
Geez, dude ... I think she has a whooooooooooole other conception of what "baby weight" is ... you tell her she looks great. And, what I really like about both shots, is how you were able to feminize the look ... both with your wife, and the conquer design, itself. I don't see that with branded designs (but, that is beyond my area, so I might just not notice that with others). Great job, Greg!
Wow! She's pretty, Greg. You don't need to pay someone when your wife has the face of an angel.. Lucky you!! (Not cheap, good call!!) Pls tell Mrs. Greg we love her photos, and she is looking marvelous! She's so pretty.... Haha, no wonder you own a nice camera... your pics always look nice!!! And your design is super nice in this feminine version of it. Congrats all around, Greg.
Thank you to both of you. She's VERY modest about her looks, and I've never understood it! Everywhere she goes she has complete strangers telling her how pretty she is...oh well. Women!
We've got a whole women's line complete with it's own logo separate from the men. It's been going over pretty well, hopefully it continues...
i'm working on my new pics..... just have to order some tshirts since i work with a fullfilment store now...... until i get some loot for the official line..grrrr...
just need to gather up my detroit family and do it again.......
stay safe out there

Yes, she does look young. Every year we go to the state fair, and she plays the age-guessing game with the attendants. Most of them say something like 16, 17.
She'll be 30 this year.
I really hope she doesn't see this now.

Your pics look sharp, but I would have gotten a ladder, chair, or stood on the table to get "on top" of the shirts . That brings the client into the pic instead of looking like the shirts are on a flat table for display. does that makes sense? When we are at a store, we walk right past items that lay flat on a table, our eyes skim right past them to look for things that are vertical, that is, RIGHT in our line of sight. Horizontal lines invite the eye to move, like following a road to the horizon... but if there is a tree right in the middle of the highway... we stop and take notice!
