Hi OSP...

I have been a member for a while. But I never officially introduced myself. I lurked for a while, and then joined, but still hesitated to post. Most of what I post are questions. Things I need answered that I know no one else will be able to answer, besides the wonderful OSPers. I have never seen a more talented group of people in my life, and even though I have met maybe 1 or 2 of you, I feel a kinship with all of you.

I guess I wanted to introduce myself so that I felt more official. A lot of you seem so close, and I still feel like an observer, where I would love to feel like a part of the community. I'm still a little scared to post pictures. Everyone's pictures on here are just epic compared to mine. I think I have posted 2 pictures in the last 6 months.

I live in TX. I love it, even though it's super hot. I have been in photography for about a year now. I started working as an assistant, then left to start my own business. I have a part time job on the side until I feel secure enough to let that go. I have never done anything that made me happier. I love how creative it allows me to be, and most of all I love to see how much happiness it brings to people's lives. In my free time, I love to sing. Music is my first love. Or maybe I should just say 'the arts' in general

I hope that I can get to know many of you in the future, whether it be in person, or just on the web.

Nice to meet all of you!!!

Kim

Hi Kim. Welcome from Naples, FL.
Astrid and Rene.

Kim!! Hello.

It's been a while since we last chatted. Glad you've stepped out of the shadows and introduced yourself! How are you??

Welcome Kim! Great to have you here :-)

Hi Kim! Welcome:)

I wish I could sing! I always feel like I can, but I think I'd need professional lessons to make myself sound any good, haha! I grew up playing piano, teachin myself some guitar, and I still play the cello (that's the only instrument I keep up on) ... art and music are both loves of mine as well:)

Welcome Kim glad to finally officially be introduced

Welcome to OSP, Kim

Welcome!

Welcome from Orlando!!!

(I LOVE to sing too!)

Hi Kim. I'm new here too and I can understand, I was apprehensive to post pictures because I was in awe of the great talent here. I am from Texas too as you can see and I am the same way.. I have always loved to sing, act, and really anything in the arts!

Welcome Kim!

Welcome Kim! It's nice to have another TX photographer here.
