Photo Fun

So today was definitely a day centered around photography! I spend most of the afternoon at work, researching digital SLR cameras and all the accessories we would need to take photos of teeth, as well as before and after pictures for cosmetic cases, I hunted and searched for the right stuff at the best price...and finally decided I'd just go to Wolf camera so I might be able to see some of the stuff, so I stopped by Wolf Camera to get an estimate for all of the snazzy stuff we would need because they didn't really have everything in the store, but anyways...that took far too long, because they were swampped with business. (I ended up looking for everything on-line tonight instead...and it looks like you don't have to pay tax / shipping and handling if you buy the camera on-line. Sounds like a cool deal to me. We're getting the Nikon D70 digital SLR...which sounds like It's quite an amazing camera! I'm sure it will be, I've been impressed with my Nikon! I love it!

So...Then I decided I would run to Wal-Mart to pick up all of the prints for Darcy and Ramey's senior portraits. They turned out really nice, and they made like a million extra which I guess will be good for the girls, and good for me because I didn't have to pay extra for them! =) That's always a good deal. Plus the girl who was ringing up all my stuff was complimenting my work, which made me feel good too!

It's such a neat feeling, to know that other people like what I've been able to create in a portrait, or a photograph. I'm really starting to think that this might be it. I can totally picture myself having a career in photography, or at least doing a bunch of it on the side. My dream would be to have my own studio, but I'm sure that will take a lot of patience and determination. It makes me happy when I see prints turn out good, I feel like I have worth, and that I've accomplished something important. Both of those feelings are ones I love experiencing, I don't know...when I think about photography and the possibility of becoming a photographer, it just makes me smile, and I feel good inside. I think the right combination of confidence as well as more education and experience, could yield to a career in photography....HOW AMAZING WOULD THAT BE????

Anyways...I'll dream of someday being able to afford the camera we're getting for the office....ZZZ.......
