I haven't posted for a while because I've been really busy with life and with photography. We just celebrated my daughter's first birthday and had the big party over the weekend. I got some nice pictures of her but the lighting wasn't the best and I've recently discovered that my flash that I had bought years ago for my original film Canon Rebel doesn't work with my new DSLR. That's made shooting indoors very tricky. There was also the added complication that while I really wanted to just be the "photographer" at the party, I still had to be mom and play hostess.
Besides all of that, I've been very busy doing some photo shoots for friends so there's been a lot of post-editing. I'm really happy with how I'm improving and I'm getting a lot of positive feedback. So I'm generally feeling pretty good about all of this, though I didn't expect it to take off this fast.
I'm also happy to have 3 photos that earned EFPs on the BetterPhoto website. What does that mean? Well, the website runs a monthly photo contest and earning an EFP (Editor's First Pick) means that the photo made it past the first round of judging for October's contest. I'm just so excited to have actual professional photographers recognize my work.
well, back to work
