My parents were inundated with Grandkids this weekend :) . It was pretty great. I love my niece’s. They are growing up so fast that every time I see them they have some new trick to show. They are both using sign language quite a lot so at the age of 1 (and some change) they are already communicating with each other. I love it when Lucy rattles off “hambooga” and Maddie does the best impression of a horse :) .





They are spunky and fun and I picked a few of the photos I liked best from our day together. I lost a bunch of great shots because I’m still working on getting the camera FOCUSED in the midst of the action. I’m determined to find some trick that will make it easier… if anyone reading this has any ideas feel free to let me know.

Well, I did it. I spent some hard earned money on a photography workshop…

huh?

Yes, you heard me… photography! My fiance is a very talented photographer and enjoys shooting weddings among other things. She has many talents but this is something that we felt could be developed and parlayed into something lucrative. Someday we’d like to have kiddos running around so we thought this would be a great way to make some extra money and have more time for a family.

The workshop was called Get Inspired and Carrie and I were totally inspired! I miss being there! My brain is on overload and I can’t sit still and work this week because I want to be out taking pictures :) . To sum it up, we spent about 16 hours with some of the most talented photographers around and learned everything; Camera basics, Photoshop workflow, conducting a model shoot, marketing our business, pricing our work… it was way fun and way intense. Holly, Jen, John and their team really rocked it!

Now I just need to buy a real camera :) .

Carrie has all of our photos so once I get those and check em out I’ll upload a few.
