Here we go!!!

Well, here we go! This is my first attempt at a blog, and I think I will like it! I enjoy talking, and in this case, I can talk all I want and not be interrupted by those shorter than my waist! Although I love them more than any thing on this earth, I do enjoy being able to talk without their interruption! :)

So, as you know, or maybe don't know, I enjoy taking pictures! I have recently invested in a Nikon D40x, thanks to my friend Craig and his list of various gadgets to purchase! Photography is a passion that I have had in me for a long time coming, and just never put it you use with a fancy camera. Some say I have an "eye" for it, I say I have a good camera :) Although, I do think photography does require an eye, maybe even two if your lucky!

With this passion I hope to bring photography into the homes of those who may have thought they could never have such wonderful pictures. Before I started taking pictures, I was one of those people. I would see magnificent pictures of families, children, newborns, weddings and everything in between and think, "Man, I wish I could have pictures like that to put on the walls of my home" Well, now I can, or at least I am getting ALOT closer.

I am by no means "professional", it would be nice, but so would quite a few other things. With all things, comes practice, persistence, and patience! I am having to embrace each of these every day with my photography. I hope to invest in a better lens for my camera, and maybe even upgrade my camera one day. For now, I am beyond happy with what I have.

So far, I have had the opportunity to take pictures of many families, children, and even got my toes wet in a wedding. Lots to learn in each category, but like I said before... Practice, Persistence, and Patience!

I hope you can follow me and my photography endeavors on a daily basis, or maybe weekly. I'm not sure if I can keep up daily :) I'll do my best!

Have a great evening!
