I just learned this from another photographer friend of mine:

"Facebook now requires page administrators to pay to promote their updates if we want our content to be seen by our fans. If we don't pay, only 10% of the fans actually receive the updates in their Facebook home page feed.

To keep receiving all posts from Photo DeLux, hover the mouse on the "Like" button of the page, and in the drop-down menu select "ADD TO INTEREST LISTS". Follow the steps and choose a name for your interest list (kind of like Google's circles), then when you select that interest list you will see ALL of the posts!"

Please be sure to do this for all of the pages you love to get updates from! I'll be posting more images from the backlogs soon!

Had some great shootings in Padua and Venice, Italy last weekend... looking forward to sharing the results!
