young love

So I had the pleasure of taking Engagement photos for a friend. Okay, so basically I begged her to let me take them. But she said YES, so that’s all that matters! Here’s a little glimpse of some of the shots I got (oh … and it doesn’t hurt that they are incredibly beautiful).

So this session went a TON smoother than my other ones, but there is STILL a lot for me to learn. The big thing I have learn is the placement of hands. It’s kind of hard to remember, but when you look at photos afterwards, it becomes really obvious. HA!

Oh – and here’s another idea for you guys! I started a ‘private group’ on FB for people who are just wanting to get better at Photography (like me). Since it’s a private group, the only way you can access it,  is if I add you – or another Member adds you. My thought is that we’ll have our own little community where we can ask the stupidest of questions (believe me, I have a TON) and get feedback on our pictures. I’ll also have weekly ‘assignments’ – purely for the accountability of getting out there and practicing.

My hope is that we can all learn together and share what little (or lot) of knowledge we have. I honestly don’t mind if it’s just me and two of my friends, or if we have twenty. If you’re friends with me on FB, message me and I’ll add you. Actually, if I’m not friends with you on FB you can still message me and I’ll add you – or you can go to the BecomingAjumma FB page via the link on the right and ask for an add there. And if you’re not on FB at all, you can leave your FB name in the comments below or send me a message via the contact link above.

I’ll be honest – I hope some you guys want to join. I think it would make it SO much more fun to have others to discuss stuff with. But if not, I always have my husband as my sounding board (which I’m sure he just loves … um … yeah …).
