Another Cute One

Here's another cute one of my sister.  I wish the shadows weren't in the way, but, I still think she's beautiful in it!

My beautiful sister was so kind to let me take pictures of her this past Sunday.  We headed to Wheeler Farm.  It was the first time either of us had been there and we can sum it up in two words: Stinky and Muddy!  I don't know how many times we ran into mud puddles on our adventure.  It was a lot of fun to hang out with my sister though.  She is beautiful and such an amazing young woman!  Love ya!

Here is a sneak peak of some fun we had:

In December of 2011, I was able to take some pictures of my cute little cousin, at Murray Park.  At first she was a little hesitant, but as soon as I gave her a sucker, she was bouncing off the walls!  It was SUPER cold outside and we were only able to take pictures for 20 minutes, but I think we got some good ones!

Such a goofball!

This one breaks my heart, but is priceless.  She was so sad about taking her coat off in the freezing cold

My Photography Passion

I am so excited to open this next chapter of my life.  I love photography!  Love looking at it.  Love creating it.
I have always loved to bring my camera with me and take pictures.  In high school, I wanted to take a photography class, but it was so popular that I could never register for it in time.  I was finally given a chance to take some classes in college.

I first took a film class where we were able to take pictures and then develop them myself in a dark room.  LOVED THIS CLASS!  It was frustrating at first, taking so much time to develop a picture, only to over or under expose the picture.  Even though it took some practice, I soon began to love it.  I hope to one day have my own dark room in our future house (my husband doesn't know about my little plan yet, but hopefully he won't put up too much of a fight).

The next class I was able to take was a digital photography class.  I felt a little more in my element when I first started this class.  I already knew how to use my camera and I didn't have to spend hours in the dark room to make a picture perfect.  My instructor was the same for both classes.  I was so surprised to see one of my pictures on the power point as my teacher explained the requirements for my digital photography class. It made me feel like I could actually make people happy with my pictures.

And so, the rest is history.  I am really excited to have my new camera this year.  There is a lot for me to learn and I'm excited to be able to experiment, succeed, and of course fail at times.  I hope you all enjoy my pictures!
