I got a new camera

Hey there lovely readers.

Earlier this month I went and bought a Nikon d3200. I'm still trying to figure everything out on it. I'm so used to using auto, that going into manual is a little scary. I actually have to adjust the exposure, the shutter speed, aperture, f/stops, and it has been a little difficult because I really haven't been able to practice a lot. It has been way to cold outside for me to practice and my house has horrible lighting so it is hard to actually get a good picture. Anyway, as soon as it gets warmer out, I will be out there just practicing. Because practice makes perfect, right? In the meantime though, I've been scouring the internet for any tips & tricks to help me out, I've found a couple that I like. I may try to post some of those tips on my blog, along with an example photo... Also, Pinterest  is amazing! I'm finding sooo many things on there that have helped me. I highly recommend it. I've pinned quite a few (over a hundred) things related to photography; whether it be poses or tips, I pin almost everything, haha. Here are some of my boards, if you'd like to follow Senior poses, couples poses, photography tips, these are the ones I pin to the most. Okay, enough babbling, onto showing some of the pictures I've taken.

 I have a couple pictures that I can share with you, I've actually taken a few of my sister but my mom doesn't want me putting those pictures on the internet. No biggy, I've got others that don't show her face. There is one though that I really love, but it shows her face, so can't post that one (:

Okay, so I realize that these aren't the greatest,but I'm working on it.

it's in the air...

When you walk outside this time of year, you see all the leaves have changed colors, it's crisp, and there is a different smell in the air. That's why this post is titled "it's in the air" even though I can't capture it in a photograph. Today I'm posting a few pictures of leaves.

Fall is just such a beautiful time of the year.

Hey there,
So, it's that time of year. Fall! Which means, Pumpkins!

All the photos were edited using Pic Monkey (: 

I hope you enjoy!

No photoshoot :(

So, you've probably noticed by now, but the photoshoot that I had talked about, was cancelled...
I'm hoping to get more people interested, but it's been a slow process. Anyway, just wanted to update you, and as soon as I get another one scheduled, I'll let you know.

i finally captured it!

Hey y'all!
So I've been wanting for awhile now, to capture something & I finally got it!
Maybe I'm a little to excited about this....

I've also included some other photos as well :)

I can't wait for the fall season to get here! I hope to have a new camera soon, and I can't wait to add tons of fall pictures!

First Shoot!

Hey there guys (:

I'm so excited to say this, I've got my very first photoshoot this weekend! Ahhhh!

I'm doing it for one of my best friends and I couldn't be happier (: It's going to be so much fun!

I'm planning on going to the library and getting a few book on the subject if portrait photography. Just so I can get some ideas on poses and such. I've found tons on Pinterest, but I just want to see what else is out there. I also want to try to find some books on lighting. Because that's not my strong suit as of yet ;)

Anyway, I really hope this works out because I've quit my job so I can fully pursue my passion (yikes) *fingers-crossed* After all, when you're doing what you love, it doesn't seem like work.

I'll be sure to share some of the pictures with you guys if it's okay with her (:

Until next time...

Keep chasing those dreams! <3
