New to this whole thing....

Wow... I can't believe I got through this process.  I've never had a blog or a business before.  My main focus for this blog is to document my journey through building my photography business.  My goal is to capture nature and people, in an image, as I see them through my own eyes. I want my photography to bring awareness of the world around us in a "stop and smell the roses" kind of way.  My long term goal is to someday have a photo art gallery.

I recently completed my first official photo shoot with my daughter, Cheyenne, and a long time family friend, Scarlett, (I call her my adopted daughter).  They taught me how much fun photographing people can be as well.  I'm very nervous about taking pictures for people and their events, so I figure I will get my feet wet taking pictures for friends and family first.  However, my main focus will be photo art.  I am currently working on a website that will include a store where my framed photo art will be for sale.  I will post the website on here as soon as it is ready.  For now, you can browse some of my work on my Flickr page.  A link to my Flickr page is conveniently located on the right side of this blog. 

In January I'm hoping to get my dream camera, (Nikon D5000), which will allow me to take even more amazing pictures.  I tried it out at the store and absolutely fell in love with it.  I'm so excited about beginning this new chapter in my life and can hardly wait to share my photos with the world!
