Hey everyone,

I'm 28, married and expecting my first baby. I've been a wedding photographer in Miami, FL for about 5 years now and enjoying it quite a bit. I've been in the Pictage system for a while but I want to check this out here.

It seems like there are a lot of things going on here at OSP. It's a bit overwhelming and I'm not sure what the best forums are or anything else I should be doing. Anyone want to give me some starter tips? Thanks.

First ... Welcome!

Second... ignore about 90% of what goes on around here. Ignore the politics (Ryan and I have waaaay too much fun in the political threads!) Ignore anything not in a serious topic header. Ignore Tami and Jim Cook any time they start going at each other.

Especially ignore me. I'm just a ghost in the machine.

Hi Alex! Congratulations on your baby! There is nothing better in the world than being a parent....it's truly amazing. My husband and I have a 15 month old son.
I don't know much about this forum...I actually just got on here to post for the first time and thought I would reply to yours first. I've heard great things about it though and am excited to get involved.

Ignore Jim Cook, he's nothing but a clown and knows nothing about anything - he doesnt even know how to use a camera!

Especially ignore me. I'm just a ghost in the machine.

tami is this forum's most cherished member - we all love her to death and wait in anticipation for any of her posts.

just remember, when you see a thread started by tami - read it - cause she is just brimming with useful info. we all love tami. tami is the bestest ever!

Welcome... first baby = wonderful (of course they all = wonderful) thumbsup.gif
Welcome. I am fairly new here myself and yeah there is lots of ground to cover if that is what you like to do. There are plenty of forums I have not touched yet. Poke around and make yourself at home... you'll discover where the fridge is.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. I'm happy to see good mix of friendly people and jokers in the group. I can be pretty sarcastic at times, but only after we know each other.

I like the Bible quotes too. Glad to see people sharing them.

Welcome!

Just remember one thing and all of the world's troubles will go away, OSP ROCKS!!!!
