I did some research online and received some guidance on angle and such, but even in direct sunlight I am having some trouble catching the color accurately. I am debating hiring someone to photograph my entire portfolio which will be very costly to keep my webpage current or to purchase a camera and equipment that will allow me to capture my work accurately.…</p>

Many times, co-workers are from the world of the self-employed; freelancers who have taken to working from home or the coffee shop, and would like more of the social interaction that a working office provides.<br/><br/>In the case of "Alchemical Spaces" our goal is to bring together people in need of this type of working situation, and to focus on those that are developing social entrepreneurial projects, using business knowledge and acumen for the betterment of the social good. In addition, developing resources specific to social entrepreneurs and advancing knowledge of this working movement within Syracuse.</span></div>

<p>I know I create because if I did not, my life would feel only half lived. I have been creating in many areas, including window display, trade show design, non-fiction writing, conceptual development of business concepts, creation of advertising, and social media. I believe that the next challenge is to help others and myself find ways to more often be paid for their creations so that they can devote more time to doing what they love (making actual creations) and free them from any drudgery type mundane jobs they may trapped in.</p>
