Keeping up with the Shutter Sisters

Since our launch we have been growing sure and steady here at Shutter Sisters and there’s so much going it seemed like a little overview was needed.

First, let me honor the photographer who shot today’s featured photo, Cranial Hiccups. This was by far the fan favorite at The Daily Click with an awesome 62 comments all singing the praises of this beautiful image. Cheers Cocoa! That said, very first Blurb Book, The Daily Click will be coming soon to the Blurb Bookstore. Thanks to all of you who submit incredible images to our Flickr Pool and for voting for those that turned up over at The Daily Click this first go round. We are sifting through and tallying up the comments now that the voting process is over and those of you whos images make it into this first book will be hearing from us via your Flickr mail very soon so be on the lookout for that!

Our second Blurb Book , ShutterWalk will follow the first, featuring some of the shots from our San Francisco PhotoWalk and BlogHer weekend. If you were at BlogHer and have some photos you’d like to have considered for the book, you have until Aug 15^th to enter them in the book’s Flickr group. Even if you couldn’t make the PhotoWalk but you got some cool shots at BlogHer that weekend, you can submit.

We’re also thrilled to share that our Flash Bulb necklace designed by Blue Poppy Jewelry is becoming quite coveted item! Since our numbers are limited still we are going through the comments from the official-unofficial pre-order post and using that as our “list”. First comment, first serve kind of thing. Some of you have gotten your necklaces already and some will hear from us in the next few days. The rest of you will get word just as soon as we get the next order in. And please be sure to include your email in your comment and double check that it’s correct. If you haven’t added your comment/name/email to the post, please do! It will ensure that you will be notified just as soon as your necklace is available.

And the last of the fun news is that we are working on our first official Shutter Sisters Newsletter. We are growing leaps and bounds, aren’t we? So, now is the time to go register to get on our email list so you too can receive a little Shutter Sisters somethin’ somethin’ in your inbox once a month! More on that soon but for now, we encourage you to get on the list.

Oh, and a quick reminder (as requested); One Sweet Shot is happening THIS Sunday so please send in your OSS honorees to click@shuttersisters.com when you can!

Thanks again everyone for all of the encouragement, support and participation here. Keep the emails coming if you’ve got something you want to share with us and above all else, keep clickin’.

I love that Shutter Sisters isn't standing still, and it's growing, when something is this amazing it's just exciting to watch it blossom. Love the silhuette picture too, those are my favorite!

Thank you for recapping all of this info for me and other SS newbies. I will look for a Sweet Shot from a friend to nominate. ;-)

I've been patiently waiting for the Flash Bulb Necklace. It's my favorite color of blue. All the new developments with the books and newsletter are exciting. Shutter Sisters Rocks!

Thanks to all who voted for the silhouette shot of my children playing. I truly feel humbled.

I never doubted for a minute that SS would inspire and flourish. Each time I visit my heart falls in love with photography over and over. The desire to have more knowledge, better ability pulses wildly.

Keep soaring...no limits.

Shutter Sisters is the best community of photographers I've found to date (and I've been in quite a few)

Way to grow SS!
