Second Photo Shoot!

Heyyy folks!

I finally got my second photo shoot pictures edited! It took quite a bit to find the time do get them done, but I found it. My boyfriend's mother set me up with a lady from her work that is expecting her fourth child. So I took her maternity pictures and family pictures. They are a very beautiful family and I can definitely see the mothers' love for her children. So here are some pictures:











I also wanted to share with everyone Sarah Barlows' blog that she posted about her internship that I attended this summer. She has a few pictures and wrote about our week together. There is also a video she posted on the blog too. While I was down there, Sarah, Kristen, and I made a music video to "Airplanes." It was such a fun time making it! I absolutely LOVE the video and I seriously cannot stop listening to the song we made it to. CHECK IT OUTTT!

So besides all that stuff, it has been really hard to find time to work on my Photography. I really don't have much to do right now either. Besides experimenting and trying to set up some packages and prices. I will be taking some newborn pictures very soon. My friends' baby finally made it into the world. :-D But I am going to wait a little bit until he becomes a little more comfortable in this world.

I have tons of people interested and possibly going to set up times with me. It is just finding the time they want me to take them. My manager from work also told me the other day that everyone is raving about his wedding pictures I took and want my contact info. So I might have some other things lined up in the future. :-)

So it is a slow process. There are times where I really wish I was a couple years in the future, when I have my business and all I am doing is my business and making a living off of it. But I keep reminding myself that the time I am taking now to make my business is very important and I just have to keep pushing myself and work hard so I can get to where I want to be. This time now is what will make me in the future. So I am staying positive and learning all that I can and doing all that I can to get there. It is going to take time. It will be an adventure for me. :-D

Ok, well I will post again very soon! Stay awesome everyone!

Love, ME!

Pictures From My First Maternity Photo Shoot!

Hey there!

I'm sorry it has been awhile again since I have had the chance to write a new post. It's been crazy busy here. With getting back into the swing of work and everything after I got back from Tennessee, more work, photo shoots, trying to find an apartment and move out, and my computer not working for two weeks. Yeah... just craziness. But! Everything has been so great and like I mentioned, I had some photo shoots. :-D

The first one I did was with a friend from work. She was pregnant and I had the chance to take her maternity pictures. And notice I wrote "was" pregnant. She had her baby already! I still have not had the chance to meet him yet. But I definitely cannot wait to! And once he's settled at home and everything, I will be taking his newborn pictures! :-D CANNOT wait. But anyway, I took some maternity pictures of just her. Then a couple days later I was able to take some more of her and her husband together. They are such a cute couple. They are always cracking me up and their love for each other is just amazing. I love them both so much. Here are some pictures.

























So that's my first photo shoot! I did another one the same day I did my first one. I just haven't had the chance to edit those pictures yet. But those will be up very soon. Other than that, just working still. I was without my computer for two weeks. So I wasn't able to do too much during that time. Now that I have it back, I have been on it nonstop.

The Art Gallery is supposed to be having a photography art show next month. I would like to enter some pictures into the gallery for the show, but it has to be pictures I have not already added to the gallery. And with getting ready to move and my photography supplies packed away, I'm not sure if I will have time to make some pictures. But I am definitely going to try.

School also starts up next month. Sooo excited for it. Now that I finally have a major decided, I cannot wait to complete my major and graduate. Which will hopefully be in a year and a half. :-D In between classes and semesters, I hope to find some photography classes or Adobe Photoshop classes to take on the side. My biggest thing I want to work on right now is editing in Photoshop. Which I am slowly figuring out myself, but I know there is so much more I can do with my pictures.

Anywho, hope you like my pictures. Leave comments if you can. I will have more of my second photo shoot up soon hopefully. Hope everyone is having a good summer. Stay cool! I will write soon!
