Can't wait to start posting....this site seems great and it seems like their is tons of great info...Im a stay at home mother of three kiddos... 2 girls and finally our boy! I have a wonderful wonderful husband and we live in southern illinois. I had a p and s camera for 4 years and pretty much learned how to work it inside and out....I loved that little thing,it was nice and simple and I just worked with what I had....which can be good sometimes.....
Last year, I decided to step over to the dslr's ....I got a nikon d50 kit lens and a 70-300zoom lens....I've also been thinking about a second body as well now too. ( it's addicting isn't it) lol.
For now I just been shooting family and friends and done a few jobs on some folks that have contacted me....Really Im not where I wanna be yet but hopefully that will change some day soon.... I usually put in 8 hours or so a day for photography...not just shooting but reading and learning too...Im hoping to learn more through this website and meet some other cool photographers as well!
This is my blog site!
