Having Fun

I've really been into the Olympics--addicted is more like it! On Sunday we're going to a "mini Olympics" for kids. Should be fun and lots of opportunity for taking pics.

Yay! I finally had some time to play with Paint Shop Pro Photo X2. (It's only been since Christmas!) I was inspired by the presentation on Lightroom at Camera Club on Wednesday. Tonight I made a custom print layout from photos taken this winter of my daughter doing silly things. Also did some pretty cool photo adjustments with white balance and filters.

My first photo shoot booking

Thanks to my husband, I have my first "booking". His best friend is getting married next year. They've agreed to me doing their engagement photos (date TBA) and if they like them they want me to do the wedding photos too! I haven't developed my own style yet but I like the photojournalistic style of late (which pretty much everyone is doing). I hope they like it too! Excited...and a bit nervous. My husband is going to be the best man so that poses the first problem for me: what to do with our daughter, who will be 3 at the time? We have lots of time to plan. Also hoping to do outdoor family portraits for a friend in the spring as well. Everyone says to start out with friends & family, so here we go!!
