I started a small wedding photography business. I have placed business cards in local bridal shops. but I can't seem to generate any customers at this time. No one is calling, I can't afford the $1,000 -$1600 to enter bridal shows. I know word of mouth is the best way but when you don't have a customer base what do you do? Please help 1.I have been in business for two years. 2. I have shot 9 weddings 3. I have all the things you need to conduct business ie. lic, samples, etc.

I have been getting buisness through word of mouth and emailing bridal shops about exchanging buisness cards but its been a slow month. Is there another effective way to advertise without busting the bank for wedding photography? Thanks so much! I have a website that is online and is not a free one, my domain name is my buisness name. I have done craigslist and others like it.
