Photography Domain Name??

I'm setting up a website for my photography, but trying to come up with a domain is insane. Everything is taken, or too expensive to buy from someone else.

I don't need anything ridiculous. Something easy to remember or explain by word of mouth.. Something with my name maybe? Melissa Jo Fischer. I've been using "emjay" as my watermark, but apparently it's taken.. *sigh

I need your creativity! My brain is fried..

mmmjphoto.com

Because it's like the letter 'M' and it's like "Mmm, cupcakes" at the same time.

tracerbullet on May 14 '09 at 12:58pm

sorry to hear that :-(

tracerbullet on May 14 '09 at 12:58pm

i guess that counts as eight hugs

tracerbullet on May 14 '09 at 1:00pm

isn't melissajofischer.com available?

TheInfamousBaka on May 14 '09 at 1:01pm

www.melissatakespictures.com

YtFeLMi on May 14 '09 at 1:04pm

8 hugs would be nice :] Thanks, you.

my name is available.. just trying to think of something creative with it. my name, alone, is boring. lol

tracerbullet on May 14 '09 at 1:06pm

emjaypictures.com

Melissa Joan Hart.

mike bautista on May 14 '09 at 1:15pm

I second Tiffany's suggestion.

stephendm on May 14 '09 at 2:20pm

Here's some.. (I checked and none of these are taken)

emjayphoto.us
em-jay.us
emjayfischer.com
emjayfoto.com
mjffoto.com
mjayfoto.com

:-)

Do you definitely want your name in it or would something that suggests photography do the job like www.photo-schmoto.com ??

spacesick 2 on May 14 '09 at 2:26pm

WatchUsMakeoutPhotography.com?

tracerbullet on May 14 '09 at 2:28pm

ooh if you can get a .us domain, you should totally do

melissasphotoha.us ;-)

3 days later

YtFeLMi on May 18 '09 at 1:40pm

Haha, thanks guys! :] I have to have the domain chosen by my birthday (tomorrow)

My top choices as of now are:
emjay-photo.com
( or emjay-photography.com)
melissajophoto.com
(or melissajophotography.com)

not sure why I didn't think to use a dash before.. What do you guys think?

Chipmnk on May 18 '09 at 1:41pm

Nice. I like emjay-photo.

35 days later

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 4:41pm

I'm late here, but like emjay-photo, which did you choose?

I recently registered a domain too, it IS tricky to think of something catchy!

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 5:19pm

I haven't registered it yet!! I thought there a deadline, but I have awhile to decide..

I like that one.. and I've still been using it as my watermark.

Just not sure if it's too hard to explain to people in person.. Maybe if I make business cards, it wont be a problem?

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 5:20pm

damn. *thought there WAS a deadline..

fatheed on Jun 22 '09 at 5:21pm

very cool. What lens did you use there?

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 5:24pm

55-200mm - Nothing special. It's a decent tele, in the right conditions.
I need some cash. I'm craving new lenses!

Steve The Great on Jun 22 '09 at 5:27pm

I wish I knew how to take creative photos like that.

SnakeMan on Jun 22 '09 at 5:27pm

whatever you pick, i vote spelling out photography. sounds more professional than shortening it to "photo."

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 5:35pm

Thanks, snake. That's how I have it on the picture. Normally, I'm not a fan of using photo OR photography in a photo business... but it just didn't look right by itself.

Thank you, Steve! I'm workin on it :]

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 5:39pm

Erm... melissajophotography.com is taken. Not sure how I knew that at the beginning of the blog, and not at the end. lol

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:16pm

i think emjay-photography is a winner, definitely photography spelled out...

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:31pm

what camera do you use lefty? (i will now call you lefty and giggle every time i talk to you :) )

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 6:39pm

lol, awesome! Evey time I see your name, I don't see P. Molick.. I just see lick.. and giggle as well.

Nikon D40.

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:40pm

hehe... glad we can make one another giggle :) sweet... i'm a nikon person too

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:41pm

p.s. you should head back over to the google maps blog and give people instructions on how you added your placemarker, cause i have no idea how others would do it, and it seems to be causing some difficulty :)

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 6:44pm

haha. On my way!

(I'm kind of a camera whore. I have a pentax, casio, canon, and nikon.. after getting my D40, I put the others away.. but I still miss my old cameras. Using a dark room makes me happy)

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:44pm

dark rooms used to make me happy too... i miss them :(

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 6:50pm

I haven't been able to work in a dark room in a few years.
I miss it too. *sigh

I want my own one day!

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:52pm

we had one in my basement when i was growing up, it was so great!! the pieces of equipment are all going to be antiques one day :(

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 6:53pm

JEALOUS!!!

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 6:55pm

this has turned into our private little chat room, lol

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 7:04pm

It has. Do you have AIM or anything?

pmolick on Jun 22 '09 at 7:05pm

i do... in fact, i added you earlier but don't see you on :) mine is uofhpete though

tracerbullet on Jun 22 '09 at 7:06pm

is that *gulp* papyrus on your watermark?

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 7:10pm

Brian - jigga?

tracerbullet on Jun 22 '09 at 7:13pm

the font you used for "emjay." is that papyrus? if it is, i'd recommend using a different font. eeeeeeveryone uses papyrus. when i was in vermont the past few days, i literally couldn't walk down a street without seeing a store sign written in papyrus :-

YtFeLMi on Jun 22 '09 at 7:16pm

lmao! Aww... I don't think it is! You would know better than I would, actually.

I don't remember what i used. I created it on my sisters computer, and can't edit the fonts. The 'photography' was a different one.

tracerbullet on Jun 22 '09 at 7:19pm

that's the second time that's happened today...can you no longer use back slashes on this site? :-

tracerbullet on Jun 22 '09 at 7:19pm

apparently not :-/
