Mr. Robert Heckes PhotoAmigo, Inc. March 1, 2010 Page 2 describe the applicable offering price with clarity. Please revise to clarify, if accurate, that the shares will be offered at the fixed price until such time, if ever, that your shares are the subj ect of quotations on the bul letin board, at which point the shares will be offered at prevailing market prices or privately-negotiated prices. 3. We note the following disclosure: “We inte nd to apply to list our common shares for quotation on the Electronic Bulletin Board but cannot assure that our application will be accepted by the Bulletin Board.” Please revise to identify the particular electronic quotation system on which you intend to seek to have your shares of common stock quoted, using th e name the quotation service uses to identify itself. If you intend to seek to have your common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, please also revise your filing to reflect that only authorized market makers (as opposed to issuers) can apply to quote securities on this service, and disclose in an appropriate part of your filing th e steps, if any, you have taken to have a market maker sponsor the company’s common stock for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. In addition, please avoid stating that you or the market maker may be applying “t o list” your common shares, as such terminology could be read to suggest that the company intends to apply for listing on a national securities exchange. 4. Further to the above comment, we are unable to locate in your filing the disclosure called for by Item 505 with resp ect to the determination of the offering price. Please revise your f iling to provide this inform ation, or advise.

Also disclose the amount of funds necessary to conduct planned operations for a minimum period of twelve months from the effective date of the registration statement, and the minimum time you estimate will be required to become a revenue-generating entity. 6.

Clarify what you have accomplished to date, and what remains to be accomplished in order for the company to begin to generate revenues.

Mr. Robert Heckes PhotoAmigo, Inc. March 1, 2010 Page 3 Risk Factors

General

7. Please add a risk factor addressing the ri sks associated with the absence of a public market for your common stock and the possibility that an active market for your shares may not develop. If applicab le and material to the company, please also address in this section the possibility that no market maker will be willing to apply to quote the company’s stock on the OTC Bulletin Board. 8. We note your risk factor di sclosures on page 7 that you “may be required to seek additional funding,” and that your common stock “may be classified as a ‘penny stock.’” The effect of these and simila r disclosures throughout the filing is to provide an unrealistically-optimistic view of the company’s business status and the risks it faces. Accordingly, please re vise your risk factors to reflect that you will be required to seek additional funding in order to execute on your business plan, and that your common stock will be classified as a pe nny stock, as appears to be the case. Please make conforming changes to similar disclosures throughout the filing. “If we are unable to attract users to our website…,” page 3

9. This risk factors states that you have not generated “significant revenues,” and indicates that you may not “be able to maintain” your revenues. As it appears from your financial statements and disclo sure elsewhere in the filing that the company has not generated any revenues to date, please revise these and similar disclosures throughout the filing to a void suggesting that the company has historically generated revenues. “If we are not successful in increasing our number of paid members…,”

10. This risk factor refers to “increasi ng [y]our number of paid members” and discusses that the success of the busin ess is dependent upon your ability “to increase [y]our base of paid photo sharing members and social networking users.” However, you disclose on page 14 that to date you have not been successful in converting free memberships to paid member ships, and as you have not generated any revenues, it appears that you have no pa ying members. If this is the case, please revise references to “increasing” the number of paid members to avoid suggesting that you currently have. For example, you could instead refer to your ability to “attract” paying members or to convert free memberships into paid ones.

We note from your disclosures on page 10 that for the period from March 2006 until your incorporation, your predecessor company provided social networking and photo sharing services to users fro m the PhoteAmigo.com website. Please explain further your reference to “pre decessor company.” Tell us who the predecessor company is, explain how you ac quired their business, and tell us your consideration to include predecessor financial information in this filing.

Plan of Operation, page 10 12. We note from your risk factor disclosu res on page 3 that the success of your business depends upon your ability to increa se your base of paid photo sharing members and social networking users, whic h is further dependent on your ability to attract users to your website. In addition, your disclosures on page 5 indicate that the number of members assessing your services will have a direct impact on your results of operations and key business me trics. Please revise to disclose the number of users (both paid, if any, and unpaid) that used your services for each period presented. We refer you to SEC Release 33-8350 and Section to III.D of SEC Release 33-6835 for guidance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 11 13. We note your disclosure that you have recently reduced your operating activities so that you can conserve cash. We note also your Part II disclo sure indicating that the estimated costs of the offering are approximately $14,000. Please disclose whether management believes the compa ny has sufficient capital to meet its capital requirements for the next twelve months. Quantify the anticipated costs and amount of additional capital that will be needed, if any, in order to fund the company’s projected operations for a minimu m of twelve months from the date of the prospectus. State the minimum period of time that you will be able to conduct planned operations using currently-avail able capital resources. Quantitative information regarding your financial require ments is necessary to enable investors to assess the company’s financial conditi on and the likelihood it will be able to pursue its business plan. See Item 303(a)(1 ) of Regulation S-K. In addition, if applicable, please provide prominent risk fact or disclosure that alerts investors to the company’s capital resource deficiency, if any, and the risks that that condition presents. Business, page 14 General

14. Further to comment 6 above, please provi de in Business a discussion of your specific business plans for the next twelve months. To the extent that your filing

Mr. Robert Heckes PhotoAmigo, Inc. March 1, 2010 Page 5 refers to the company’s future plans, fo r example with respect to the marketing strategies you intend to employ to attract website traffic, expand to provide meaningful discussions of the events or circumstances that may prevent the accomplishment of such objectives. 15. Please specifically disclose the factual basis for and the context of your claims, beliefs and opinions set forth in the regist ration statement. You must be able to substantiate on a reasonable basis all such claims, beliefs and opinions.

Executive Compensation, page 17 16. You state in the first se ntence of this section that you have not paid any compensation to executive officers or di rectors since inceptio n, but you then state that in April 2008 you began paying your chief executive officer $600/month. Please reconcile these conflicting disclo sures, and note that Item 402(m) of Regulation S-K requires disc losure of not only amounts actually paid, but also amounts accrued, as compensation to your na med executive officer(s) for the last fiscal year. We note in this regard the accrued compensation amounts that appear on your balance sheets as current liabilities and the disclosure on page F-10 that the company accrues consulting fees of $600/month as compensation for your sole executive officer. 17. Further, because you accrued compensa tion for your chief executive officer during the company’s last fiscal year, the summary compensation table called for by Item 402(n) of Regulation S-K must be presented, covering all compensation paid or accrued to him for the year. Please also provide any related narrative disclosure called for by Item 402(o). Related Party and Other Mate rial Transactions, page 21

18. Please clearly identify any “promoters” of your company, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933 , and ensure that you provi de all the disclosure called for by 404(d)(2) and Item 401(g) of Regulation S-K with respect to any promoter. In this regard, it appears that Mr. Heckes as a founder of the company may be deemed a promoter. We note al so the disclosure on page F-9 of your financial statements relating to assets acquired by the registrant from its founder.

Mr. Robert Heckes PhotoAmigo, Inc. March 1, 2010 Page 6 19. We note disclosure in your registrati on statement, including on pages F-9 and F- 21, relating to cash advances made by your so le executive officer to the company. Please provide the disclosure called for by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K with respect to this related-pa rty indebtedness of the company, or tell us why such disclosure is not requir ed. See Item 404(d)(a).

Where You Can Find More Information, page 23 20. You state, “We are also required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission….” Please clarify that your SEC reporting requirements will commence upon effectiveness of your registration statement. 21. Disclosure in this section also indica tes that you are requi red to file proxy statements. Unless the company registers a class of securities pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, for example by filing a Form 10, it will report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and accordingly will not be subject to the proxy rules. Please tell us whether you intend to register a class of securities under the Exchange Ac t in connection with your initial public offering on Form S-1. If not, please revi se your disclosure here to remove references to the company’s proxy filing obligations.
