Well, I completed my first craft show. I borrowed a tent, bought a table, and brought a bunch of my photographs. It was a perfectly sunny day interspersed with a few wind gusts and clouds; not too hot and not too cold with just the right amount of traffic.
It sounded as though I was the only photographer at the show and I was pretty specialized at that. If you did not like flowers or lighthouses, you most likely skipped by my booth. However, those that stopped in had very positive things to say and walked out with something in their hands. I had photo note cards, matted 8 x10's and sketch books for sale. The sketch books were a bigger seller than I would have thought although there were a few people that passed on them because the pages were not lined. So, next time I need to have both.
As far as my presentation goes, next time, I would need to up it a bit and frame more pieces, have credit card ordering, and better display racks. All in all, it was a good learning experience and enabled me to get my name out there a bit more.
