Spend the Day with Erika J.

I completely forgot I had started this blog. I came to start another one and here this one sits. I'm a horrible, terrible, no good, very bad blogger. Is there a 'worst blogger' award(?), because I would totally get it!

I may change the name of this blog to 'Spend the Day with Erika J.' but not right now. I think it's pretty catchy, no?

Anyway, since I'm picking up this whole blogging thing again (yeah right! see ya in 4 months!), I have a question for all of you. Okay, I have a couple of questions.

1)I'm trying to come up with a name for my photography business. I liked "Harmless Photography" BUT others seemed to think that it made it sound like it could be 'not so harmless' after all. The reason for the Harmless part is because I have always used the screen name HarmlessDove on message boards and such. Even my email address is HarmlessDove@xxxxxx.xxx. It's taken from the bible verse about being wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove. So, here's the question. What do YOU think it should be? I was going to go with 'Captured by Erika J', but after a few weeks of tossing it around in my head, I'm not so sure I like it anymore. I also thought about 'Eye of the Beholder Photography', but it's taken. I want something different, something that will capture people's attention. I guess my work is what will capture their attention but I don't want them to feel stupid telling others what company did their photography. :0D

Wow. I said a lot just to ask one question.

2)Do you think it would be weird to have an editing business? I like to take people's dull photos or photos that didn't turn out quite like they expected, and editing them to make them look more clean and professional. You can see my work here... http://www.facebook.com/album.php?id=100001129576058&aid=31765. I will need a name for that as well. I want it to be separate from the photography business so that it doesn't confuse people and they know what I'm offering. Soooooo, now I have TWO things I need a name for. What do you think I should name my editing business?

Please leave your answer in a comment. :)
Looking forward to reading your responses.
