Day 14

I ordered a remote for my camera off of Amazon, only cost $5, and it arrived today! (as I'm writing this on Sunday, technically it was yesterday!) This is the very first photo I took using it, I wasn't sure if the timer would click on or if the remote would just take the picture. Ironically I really liked how this turned out. It encapsulated my excitement for something I have wanted for awhile-you can see me holding the directions and the remote, and it's super easy to use!!

Day 12, 13

The photo below was taken on Thursday, encapsulated my day of work-just add in some audio of me making fun of the bowlers and telling them off! 

 I was in a very 'down' mood yesterday, really all week, so when I got home from work last night I took this photo-the book is a version of Pride & Prejudice as told from the p.o.v. of Mr. Darcy (his journal writing actually) and it is fantastic. The book makes me feel better usually-I have read it so much though it's hard for me to stay concentrated without just skipping around in it.

Day 11

I tried out my new tripod today-my old one sadly broke last week and I only had to spend $20 for a very nice Vivitar. I hadn't realized how old and out of date the one I had was! The picture I took today was not what I had initially planned on taking, but the idea came to me and I tried it out.


Today is also the first day I shot with RAW format-well technically the second but I didn't know what I was doing the first time. I also now have Lightroom-after doing some research I discovered that it would be the best for what I plan to do this upcoming year with my photos. (Become more of a professional lifestyle photographer). I can't believe it took so long for me to convert over, and there is still a lot I have to figure out but I'm really excited with what I can do now! Stay tuned for some amazing stuff this year!
