Facebook Phenomenon

I've been a member of Facebook since the early, early days. The days when you had to have a certain college email address (community colleges didn't count) in order to join. The hottest social networking site was Myspace, and although I felt Facebook was more user-friendly, that was where everyone's time was spent. Businesses were quickly constructing Myspace profiles and promoting specials through them. Then, as quickly as it began, Facebook took over. As friends of mine has so often said, "Myspace is dead." And so it goes... The "circle of life" comes around more quickly in the social networking realm.

I've had a Facebook fan page for Designs by Summer since the invention of the "Fan Page" concept, but until recently, I was not at all sure of its purpose. Then I realized that I could begin offering specials to fans through Facebook. Not for the purpose of making money, but for the purpose of telling people thank you for your support.

If you have a Facebook account, please add Designs by Summer here. By becoming a fan, you will receive opportunities for seasonal bonus shoot days and be entered in drawings for discounts and freebies. You will also receive $25 off your next session if you post your (positive) thoughts on the page's wall. Just a simple thank you for your support and love.

We are officially moving to central OK in the coming months. I am now an official "Regional Creative Specialist," which means I serve both the Tulsa and OKC areas and beyond for all your photographic and design needs.
