Cute kids

The past few weeks I have seen lots of the cute kids in my life and taken some adorable pictures of them. Thought you might like to see. These kids are so cute it is impossible to take a bad picture of them.

Debbie & Alex

I had my first official engagement shoot last Friday. I think it went alright. I would have liked a little more time, but I think I was able to make some decent pictures in the time I had. I will be shooting their wedding in October! Feel free to click over to Flickr for the whole set.

great idea

As you noticed by the long list of photographers to right, I love looking at what others are doing. It helps to come up with great new ideas for my business and site. Today I found Walters & Walters Photography based in Raleigh. I have been toying with the idea of having people write reviews after I shoot their wedding, but they put a really neat twist on it. They have the Brides' Favorite page, which shows the bride's favorite picture and why she liked it. I think it is a great way to showcase your talent as well as show how people are excited by your work. So if anyone out there reading this has a favorite picture from their wedding that I happened to take, please let me know, I would love to start a similar page.

My new camera is here! Of course I didn't bring any lenses or memory cards with me, so I will have to wait until I get home to take some pretty new pictures. I am excited, it is pretty, and I am sure it will take pretty pictures.

The old camera is on its' way to Canon to get repaired (hopefully), so until then it will be a one camera show. But then soon enough there will be two cameras and Matt can be my assistant and we can take twice as many pictures! How exciting.

This weekend we are heading to a wedding and a baptism, so there will be some fun new pictures next week.

Links

I added a bunch of links over on the right hand side. There are so many great photographers out there. I have chosen a few of my favorites who also happen to have photography blogs. These are all portrait/wedding photographers. Enjoy browsing them.
