2)\u00a0 Tag people in photos from shoots that you post.\u00a0 This has amazing potential!\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 Because, when you tag someone in a photo, everyone that is their friend will get an update in their “news feed” indicating that John Doe has been tagged in Jane Doe Photography’s Album – and that’s a free link to your page.\u00a0 Not only that, but consider this:\u00a0 The friends of that engaged fiance or portrait subject or newly married couple are close to the same age, have similar taste, and might just need your services for their special day or event.\u00a0 Here’s how:<\/p>\n
