Maybe…

November 6th, 2008

Maybe I can really do this photography business gig.  I’ve been working to find a good company for printing pictures.  Yesterday I received five samples, taken with my camera, using my eyes and my hands.  I stared at these photos and my heart almost exploded.

The reality of it all was sent to me in an envelope yesterday.

The reality was also evident in these shots taken during my three sessions this past week.

With each session, each shot, each day, I’m beginning to believe that this is me, my life, my future.  I believe I can do this more and more with each day that passes.

I can’t wait until tomorrow.

    Your photos are amazing. I read A LOT of blogs and am often bummed when they post pics because they are not any more special than anybody else’s kid pics. Your pictures always touch me-you have an amazing eye. You are an artist. I am sure you will be a great success!!

    I don’t think there is a single person in this world who doubts that you can do this!
    Also, I’m glad you’ve been able to find a good company, because I’m planning on ordering no less than 8 million prints.

    Beth- we are always our own worst critics but I truly hope you can see the beauty in every photo you take. Not everyone has the talent or the perspective you have when you capture these beautiful moments in time, that is why photograpghers like yourself will always be in demand. My only worry would be that your photography business is going to be so incredibly successful (and satisfying) that you won’t have as much time to devote to blogging. Best wishes.

    By the way- I heart using mpix.com for ordering professional prints- give it a try if you haven’t already. They are user-friendly, pocket-book friendly, and ship within 48 hours- something critical for people anxious for their artwork to arrive.

    Girl you know it’s true (sorry if Milli Vanilli is stuck in your head now). You’ve got the knack for this and you are going to go far. I can’t wait to see your framed work hanging in your house some day.

    Your pictures are breath taking! If you lived near me I would definitely hire you for my engagement/wedding pictures (when both events finally happened). I do believe you found your calling. Good luck!
