I got an offer from overnightprints.com for 100 free business cards since I do all the shop's cards through them. What better way to get my own card?



(front design blatantly stolen from Ben, thanks!)

Nice! Your signature looks pretty cool.

That looks awesome! Even better 'cause they were free, and everything looks great when it's free!

-K

I see what you did there.

When I made my card I started with that font, then edited it to be my actual hand writing since it was close.

mine in Luna:

mine in my handwriting (that I made into a font):

Yeah, but I transmogrified mine so it has a nice arc to it.

that was hard....

Yeah, but mine's blue.

well that and green are the other 2 logical choices...

Yeah, but mine were free.

Teds look better.

Cause they were free. (I don't know how price affects the "look")

You posted in the beer thread, so here's a hyperbole for you:

Wouldn't 100 beers that you didn't have to pay for look better than 100 that you had to pay for?

Free > Mine
truth

How much does 100 not free cards of that calibre cost?

Not much, something like $15 + shipping.

what is at the bottom of the signature side? looks like glitter or something. or maybe I HIT THE BOTTLE ALITTLE EARLY TONIGHT

That's the result of a hasty setup in the studio. As the subject and final product were not a terribly high priority, I handheld those shots with only the overhead light and I also spent no time trying to reduce reflections. What you're seeing is the overhead reflecting towards the camera. The actual card face is uniform black throughout.

By the way, what are you sippin on?

Welp I started with a few miller lites with dinner, then Imoved on to a few LI Ice Tea's ( my wife makes these very kickass) and I just ate summer summer sausage ( deer venison) and cheese with the last miller lite and a can of budwieser and Im out. The wife wont go get anymore and i dont feel like walking so I guess Im cut off.

Nice card though I like how you and ben made them like a portrait looks cool.

Yeah, I totally stole Ben's style (imitation/flattery/whatever). But I made it my own with the back side of the card.

It's already working. I may have a wedding to shoot the Sat after Thanksgiving and some tattoo parlor owner wants to have me shoot his work. Should be interesting.

I had an offer to do a wedding just after the first of the year but Ive never shot a weding or many people for that matter. Just my wife and kid and a few of the girls froms chool but I may jump on it for the experience. I think my brothers is before that and Im doing his because its going to be like mine was disposable cameras all over the tables so I guess even if I fubar the pics he wont be out anything haha.

Whats the backside of the card looklike?

Mine or Ben's? Mine is pictured in my first post in this thread. Ben went with a trick 18% grey back that only photographers in the know will understand.
