I took this image to my hairdresser to ask her opinion (I'm not at all sure about it) and she bought it. I still don't know if I like it or not but it was a nice feeling that someone wanted to buy it.

Excellent Rachel - you may need to start asking more people their opinions:)

I can't see the picture at the moment as I'm at work, but will look later.

I showed it to her in 11 x 14 framed larger (plain black frame, off-white mat).

Thanks, all!

You've learned an important marketing lesson: show what you want to sell.

Congratulations on the sale. You might try making big prints of other examples of your work and showing them around too. They might sell too ;)

Jacob Eliana is the business owned and managed by my husband. I give him all copyrights over my work. I just want to take the images...he can do the work!

Thanks.

P.S. Jacob and Eliana are my two children.

Congratulations on yours. It's always exciting to hear ca-ching....ch-ching.

Why are we as photographers so wrapped up in the emotions of others liking our work?
