On July 20th, we had a Photographer's Picnic from one of the groups I belong to.  At these get togethers, the plan is to pair up photographers so they can take pictures of each other's families.  Since photographers are the ones always taking pictures, they tend to forget to take formal pictures of their own family.  I didn't want to participate because with this particular group I belong too, I look up to all of the photogs.  They are the best in the business!  I have to admit, I felt so intimidated and I didn't want to "mess" someone else's family pictures because my pictures are not as awesome as theirs.  I was relieved when everybody got paired off and I was off the hook.  Well, my relief did not live long. A photographer and his girlfriend came a little late and they had no one to be paired off with.  The all so wonderful Eric Foley said to me. Go, go with Stephen and his girlfriend and take each other's pictures.  I pleaded, but lost my case.

I have never been so nervous at a photo shoot! My mine went blank and all I keep saying; "I'm sorry you got the short end of the stick."  Here are the awesome pictures he took of David and I!  We love them!

Hello everyone!  The pass two years, for my business have been not as good as I want it to be.  I have had to step back and analyze what can I do to better myself as a photographer; bring in more customers and build a arsenal of steady clients.  I have been researching, attending workshops, joining photography groups and getting out more and just shoot pictures for more practice.  I am very hard on myself.  I am self-deprecating and always think my pictures are not up to par as they should be.  I have thought of giving up many times, but the passion I have for photography does not let me.
