One of my biggest struggles in starting this blog was figuring out where and how to start. So many thoughts as to how I should go about getting this under way. “Should I wait until I get a bit better at shooting manually?” “I should design my logo first.” “What the heck am I going to write about that people are even going to want to read this?”

So I just started. After all, the best place to start is at the beginning! Fortunately enough for me, I’ve been able to start a concentrated effort on my adobe suite skills, specifically illustrator and photoshop at work. And thus, my logo was born. Many thanks to those who post instructional youtube videos without which I’d be lost. And choosing a name? Well, that took a better part of a month. And after all my idea boards, word association exercises, and Google searches it wasn’t until I went to actually start my blog and discovered what URLs were available that my name came to be! I swear it always ends up being something that comes about per chance in regards to such things. It just hits you.

So really this is a beginning of a beginning. My journey to honing my photography skills to the point where someone might want to pay me for them (fingers crossed). Personally, my absolute favs are the candid shots I’m lucky enough to snap every now and then. Yet, I know it takes so much more than that. So hop on board and join me as I start to bite off more than I can chew and try to learn the technical side of this art and along the way, get lucky with some great candid moments.
