Fantastic!! Welcome!! Love your take on the business!
I'm Socks and I manage a board game store! We're learning many different areas of Square, and would love to see more functionality for boutique and retail stores.
hello, my name is Melissa Pasek. I live in Aulander, NC. I teach, full time, for Methodist Home for Children, the Edenton multipurpose home. Photography will be my second act, if I can sell mor than just postcards and calendars.
I love taking pictures of animals, landscapes, flowers etc... I feel much more calm and peaceful when photographing nature. I believe nature is healing. I have been taking pictures of nature for years but I have only been selling my pictures for 2 years. I registered my business name, MP Pics, last August. I was told there was no other one with that name but there is one MP pics in Toms River, NJ which, ironically , is the state we moved from 21 years ago.
I have 40 pictures framed. I also have my pictures on mugs, tumblers, t-shirts, calendars, blankets etc.... I have been commissioned by clients to take pictures of towns or pigs or goats and turn them into puzzles, mugs, ornaments, canvas' , etc....
About 15 years ago I started a blog on http://www.magmapoflife.wordpress.com so I am also posting pictures on there and on FB and Instagram.
I have been a vendor at several events and I'm trying to apply for more this year. Some are crazy expensive.
Any others from NC on here?
let me know!
Happy you're here, Melissa! Love that picture of the bees in your portfolio! 🐝
Good luck at your upcoming events!
I share your faith and love photography! Especially nature!! My favorite thing to photograph is the heavy snow on the trees. I have taken so many up close pictures of bees! I just love it!! Welcome!!

Hi, I’m Alyx Jame, a pest control expert. Just trying to get some better features added to the Square Appointments app to make scheduling easier for my clients!
Welcome Alyx! I know the pest control world well! My dad owned and operated his own pest control business for 25 years. 🙂🕷
Thanks!
That's great! Having a family background in the industry must have given you some valuable insights. What was it like growing up with a pest control business in the family? By the way, does your family still own and operate the pest control business, and if so, in which city?
SO many valuable insights on both pests and entrepreneurship. One of my best memories of my dad in action was during one of my softball games and a skunk made his way to the outfield. The umpire called timeout and tried shoo-ing it away but it wouldn't budge; so my dad sighed and had my mom hold his beer while he went out to his truck to get the supplies to catch him and move him back into the woods. 😜
He was a one man operation his whole life and retired last year to now take on his other full time job of watching my kids. 😆 We're in St. Louis, MO! He was too old school to move to online scheduling but please keep me updated on how Appointments works for you in the industry. I'll always be invested in the pest world!
