My daughter, Samantha is taking an art class this year. The other day she was telling me all about the things they have planned for the year - sculpting, photography, abstracts, pottery, and drawing techniques. The first week in art their focus was on photography. She wanted to borrow my camera to take to school, but I just could not take that risk. Luckily the art teacher had a few cameras around and he let the students use them.
Over the weekend I saw Samantha taking pictures of nearly everything inside and outside of our house. She said, "Mom, I can see why you like photography so much. It really makes you look at things differently." OMG!!!!!!!!!! She has finally seen the light! Okay it took another person to show her the beauty of photography but she finally understands why photos are so important.
Photography is an art, preserves time in family history, provides an outlet, and makes the viewer and photographer smile.
Within the past few weeks, I have gotten a couple of request for photography quotes. If they all take place, I am going to have a busy Fall! Which is not a bad thing, because I love my hobby which has turned into a great side job!
Below are some pictures I recently took of Winnie Kate Bryant. She was a referral from a friend. Her mom wanted pictures to create for her first birthday invites and then decided let's just do family pictures while we are at it. The day we took these it was a scorching day and I sweated my hind off, but little Ms. Winnie was a trooper considering the heat.
This was her invite that her mom created. I love how she picked the invite background to match her outfit.
I always like creating one out of the ordinary photo. I like the frame shot, but think they could have been a little closer.
