Welcome to J. Michael Strange - Photography Blog.
To tell you the truth, I'm not much of a writer. I don't even update my Facebook status that often.
I will try to leave photography related notes here, when I think of something that may be worthwhile.
Thanks for hanging out with me.

I loved working for the Royals last year. I was a fan photographer, taking pictures of the people that came to watch the Royals at Kauffman Stadium. I learned a lot about baseball. I learned a lot about Kauffman Stadium, and the Royals did VERY well. American league champions, and went to the World Series. Game 7 was a heartbreaker. They came so close, but in the end, lost.
I worked a few of the early games this year, but could not keep up with the schedule. It was great to follow the Royals, and see them doing VERY well again this year. It was amazing to watch them come from behind in game 4 to win the World Series.
Kansas City has the best sports fans in the country. The parade and celebration for the Royals in Kansas City attracted hundreds of thousands of people to the downtown area (I heard estimates from 400 to 600 thousand people). With all of those people, there was minimal reports of violence. The comments were about being a community. I am proud of the people of Kansas City.
Now, Gooo Chiefs!
I started running Facebook ads on August 1st. I'm trying to get traffic to my site to see if it will convert to business.
If you have seen one of my Facebook ads, Please leave a comment. What was your impression of the ad? Did you click on the link and follow it to my website? Is my website persuasive in helping you choose a photographer?
I had a great time at the Coronation of King Henry the IIX for the Kansas City Renaissance Festival. The Scottish Rites is a beautiful venue. It was great to see so many of my friends, and see so many new people involved. Looking forward to another great season at KCRF.
Today is the Show Me Heaven Fashion Show. Designer Mia Marie has created unique and spectacular wearable wings. She has chosen me to be the lead designer photographer. I'm packing up my equipment and making sure that my batteries are charged and my memory cards are formatted. It's going to be a crazy and exciting day.
Here is hoping that everyone is enjoying a fun and safe Independence Day.
I've cooked out on the grill and am looking forward to taking pictures of the fireworks tonight.
