photo frenzy.

I officially love taking pics. Officially.

For graduation, my familia gifted me a Nikon D300 - I'm obsessed. So, imagine 3 adorable little ones within walking distance plus my um, obsession --- yep --- a perfect combination. There is so much to learn with these gadgets, but I am enjoying the challenge. I don't have any professional backdrops yet or the fancy lighting that is practically essential - but we make due. We get a good laugh during the "photo shoots" --- accident prone babies diaperless (yuck), table lamps, fabric by the yard, random props & nurturing/worried mothers (thanks Brandie, Gentree & Brea). In the end I feel lucky to capture (or attempt to) the sweet everythings of a baby. Here are some shots.

If anyone knows anyone who wants some free pics taken --- I would love the experience! I've also done some bridals, engagements & maternity. :)

Ah I love all your pictures! My husband has a D40 and he loves it. I want a nice camera but he says we don't need two! Let me know when you come back to Washington and I'll pay you to take some pictures of Brandon and I (I wasn't a big fan of our engagement or wedding pics).
