New Stuff!

Well after alot of thought, I have finally moved from Canon to Nikon. And in a big way!!!! Thanks to a great friend that believes I can do this for a living...here is a list of new equipment.....

Nikon D80 (10.2 MP)
Battery Grip
IttL -680 Flash
18-135 Nikon lens (Yes!!! Nikon glass!)
HP Photo Smart Printer
2 soft boxes and one Strobe Umbrella Flash.......

I am still waiting on the lens to come in, but the camera is WAY cool. I just set up the lights tonight and they too are cool. I am going to play with them and my Canon tomorrow with the kids and we will see what we get!

So now I have to make some real money at this! I am going to hit pretty hard on senior portraits next year and hopefully pic up a wedding or two........

Brittany will be flying down in a month or so for bridal portraits and I will be going to Texas in April for the wedding. I can't believe she is getting married!!!!! But hopefully I will pick up a paid wedding or two in the next year.

Friday I am shooting a 10 year old girls birthday party, a " GlamourShots" party. That ought to be lots of fun, and I will post pics when I get home.

Thanks to the most awesome best friend in the world I now have a new watermark for my photos!! I can edit a photo all day long, but to actually do graphics I am at a loss! Here are a few samples for a wedding that I did back in September! Thanks Angel! I don't know what I would do without you.........................

The Benfords

A couple of weekends ago I did the Benford Family Photos. It was COLD, but they were troopers. I ordered proofs for them and tried something new on photos, Metallic Paper! OH WOW!!! It gave these photos almost a 3D effect. Here are a few from the shoot. This was the first family photos they had done in years, so they wanted something a little more traditional.

In Denver

So I am in Denver at Jeff's house. He had surgery today and I was just coming in to help out. he totally cheated on me with the 6th season of Gilmore Girls! Can you believe that your best girlfriend would do that. So anyway...serious Gilmore Girls marathon today. I only have 2 more disks left.

So I have about decided that if about $2000.00 dollars doesn't fall out of the sky, I am not going to be able to seriously upgrade my camera. THEN I walked outside to smoke a cigarette in the freezing cold and there out of nowhere was a falling star. WOW! So not that I think $2000.00 is going to fall into my lap, but maybe a little hope after all. A falling star is always a good thing. I don't care that 4,000,000 other people saw it, I always think that it is just for me!

I will be back home tomorrow evening. The cheater is coming home for a few days with me until he is feeling better, he says he was fine today, but I am sure that is just until he wakes up in the morning at which time I will still be watching the 6th season of Gilmore Girls by myself!

If you saw the falling star, please don't tell me! It was mine!

Welcome!

I have decided to start this so that everyone can come and see photos instead of e-mailing them and putting them on myspace. I work full time so squeezing everyone in this late in the season has been a chore, but we are getting it done. I have had great subjects recently and the backdrop of the Rockies doesn't hurt either. I will do my best to keep this up even though I am not famous for my blogging skills!
