As a designer and a photographer, I recommend the following sites.

Pink Ink Studios
I started Pink Ink Studios in 2007 with professional photographers in mind. It's a great community for beginners and experienced business owners alike.
You'll find a store full of templates, textures, actions and presets as well as pre-made blog headers and splash pages to implement into your branding.
Join the paid subscriber area and as a new business owner, you've got access to tons of great information.
Be sure to participate in our monthly photo contest too for fun prizes that are sure to make you happy! Click here to visit.

Borrow Lenses
I'm a firm believer in borrowing before buying! Don't make an unnecessary purchase.
Max at Borrow Lenses is great - customer service is top-notch. Tell him that Holly sent you! Click here to visit.

Kiss Wedding Books
By far some of my favorite album makers for photographers. Fast service, and always keeping you up-to-date in the progress of your project.
