‘i’ Before ‘e’ except….

…after ‘c’

I’m sure we’ve all heard this little saying to help us remember our spelling words in English class. Well, though there are those exceptions, such as ‘weird’ and ‘science’ I wanted to share with you all that the rule DOES apply to both my first name, RIEtte, and my company name — Clearly PercEIved Photography! For once, something about my first name actually makes sense. Ha! So, hopefully that will help you all remember how to spell Riette & Perceived. But rest assured, I own the URLs to both, and the incorrectly spelled url forwards automatically to the right one so even if you forget the little rhyme, you’ll still make it to www.clearlyperceivedphotography.com

Last little tidbit on my name. It actually has umlauts on the first “e”. Like so: Riëtte. But some computers/sites won’t recognize it as a character so in typing I often don’t add it. On a mac, just cit alt+u and then ‘e’ and it’ll put those umlaut on there for you! Isn’t it fun? Kinda makes me want to put umlauts on everything just for fun!

I hope everyone has a wonderful start to their week! Mine is sure to be fabulous as I am heading to Williamsburg for an engagement session! Yay!
