i like to take photos. am i a photographer? no. but i sort of felt like one for a few hours one saturday a couple weeks ago. a friend asked me to take some pictures of her lovely family(isn't she gorgeous? and her daughters were sooo cute. the blue eyes, oh my!). it was fun, and kinda hard too. i have a whole new appreciation for the art and the artists. i had never taken pictures for someone else and i was so worried i wouldn't get any good shots. when i got home i immediately dumped my memory card to see what i got. i was disappointed, and started thinking that would be the last time i ever did that. then i let it rest for a few days. when i came back to it with fresh i eyes i was surprised at what i found. quite a few nice ones. yay! my friend would be able to send out christmas cards! in fact many of the shots i immediately dismissed the first time had quite a bit of potential the second time around. i got busy with photoshop(yes, lots of editing) and these are the ones that made the cut. who knows, maybe i'll try it again sometime.
