Elizabeth K Photography

So a few days ago, I decided to look up what it takes to get a Nevada business license, and how much it would cost. While I was on the website, I decided to actually fill everything out and then wait to file until I could afford the $200. But as I was filling it out, it asked if any exemptions applied to my soon-to-be business. I read through the exemptions, and apparently, you are now exempt from having to file and pay for a license if you are a home-based business making less than 66 2/3% of the average annual wage, which, as of 2010 is less than $27,000 a year.
So I filed, without having to pay, and I have a business number, or something like that, and I can now legally take pictures, charge people, and not worry about someone finding out. :) Sometimes it pays to take the dive.
Anyway, I looked at tons of different combinations of my name, Bobby's name, our initials, etc., to try and find a good name for my photography business. I didn't want "Elizabeth Kearney Photography." It seemed long and boring. I finally just decided on "Elizabeth K Photography" hopefully with a really cool font.
Anyway, my whole reason for writing about this is because I'm going to start working on another blog just for that, and I think it will be something like elizabethkphotography.blogspot.com or something similar. I will also be setting up a facebook page that I would appreciate if you all wouldn't mind sharing with all your friends once it's up and running.
If you can't tell, I'm very, very excited, and I feel like this is a great thing for me and my family. I will need a little bit of help getting this off the ground, but I'm willing to pay back with free pictures anytime any family wants it.
Thank you! And look for the next few posts that give more details on the new photography blog!
