Eva and Andrew

On Tuesday I got to take more pictures of my friends children. I am learning so much when I shoot children (wow that sounds really bad). I learned that not everyone poses and you have to deal with what you get. Eva was so funny, she did everything she could not to look at the camera. I think I got a few good ones though. I hope you are pround Smitty ;) Here are just a few from our shoot on Tuesday

Am I ever done???

I feel like I am always starting something. Don't you ever wish you could just jummp past all this hard work and just get to the good stuff. For instance have you ever seen The Matrix. I wish I could just have photography talent just installed in my brain. "That would be awesome!!!" - Kevin-The Office So since I can;t I am taking more classes. Man if only I would have known this from the start I would not have taken all those other classes in college. So I have found my new family and that is the family of betterphoto.com I just joined today and I am loving it!!! I know I am going to learn so much from this site. That is why I have this blog so that I can see my progression and obviously to advertise.

James Hoogerwerf Inc.

Here are a few pictures from a shoot with our good friends the Hoogerwerfs!!! They are moving their business and wanted a few pictures of their first shop!!

Hannah and Ashton

Yesterday I had the privledge of spending time with my friend Melissa's children. I had a lot of fun and I realized that taking pictures is not fun to everyone. Hannah was all about the camera but poor Ashton had to take a ride around the block after every picture just to get his energy out. I will miss you all!!! I am sorry you have to move but maybe California will be a better state!!!

Black and White

Today I learned about making black and white more than just gray scale. Now I am not good at it but I practiced in a picture. Let me know which one you like better by making a comment.

Walk in the Neighborhood

Today Chris, Christopher, and I took a walk in our neighborhood. I loved it because I got to take some more pictures of my favorite models. We walked to the lake and then Christopher got to see the ducks with his Daddy. He is such a good Daddy.

Sarah and Jared

This is my first photo session. It was so much fun, a little cloudy but that's ok. I knew we were going to have good luck when the first thing they did was lock their keys in their car. Ha ha. They are a fun and happy couple and I am proud to call them my first.

Epcot

On January 5th my Rienzo family and our family went to Epcot. It was Christopher's first trip to the "magic." We got to go to the aquarium and Christopher loved looking at the fish. Then he road his first ride, the Nemo ride. It was great. Thank you family for taking us we loved it.

Learning Adobe

Well I am taking classes and slowly learning the wonder that is Adobe Photoshope. I am having so much stinking fun. I love it. Ok well here is what I have done so far. Just one thing and it is for Chris's woodturning. Its not great but it is ok. What do you think??
