One of my passions as far back as I can remember has been photography, when I was younger I remember snapping away, before digital cameras were available, eager to rush the film to the photo shop to be developed, that hour spent waiting for the photos, it seemed like forever, the anticipation to see how they came out, nervously opening the envelope and wanting to get the first glimpse before anyone else, just incase I looked like a dunce...ah how times have changed, now we can preview them on the screens of our digital cameras and smartphones deleting and editing as we wish, before you have to show anyone and risk the embarrassment. The joys of technology.
A few months ago I decided to get to know our (my moms that ive adopted) canon a little better, determined not to use the auto function and set the aperture, shutterspeed and iso myself, so after a little research and alot of practice (and deleting) I am finally getting the hang of things, and my passion has grown, my desire is to be a professional photographer one day, I want to study it, get to know it better, practice it, perfect the art and create beautiful images that hang on peoples walls, that capture the beauty of love, of life.
So I started offering to do photos of friends and family, and my kids are my main experiment when it comes to photos. I love capturing their laughs.
Untill the time comes when I can take photos professionally and quit my day job I will continue to practice on willing friends and family.
