New ventures...

Well just as I was trying to get out of doing photography on the side, I agreed to do some baby portraits. And I'm glad I did. I'm sure like most photographers, or really anyone else, you reach a point of mundane-ness (not sure if that's a word). I've been doing weddings for almost 1.5 years now and they just are really boring/stressful. Engagement shoots and bridal sessions are fun, but even those get monotonous. Then there are baby pictures. You can't really pose the kids to save your life and they don't look like a frozen statue waiting to be photographed. You really get their raw emotion and innocence. And that's what drew me into photography in the first place. I could care less how skinny, wrinkled, goofy or whatever people always find wrong with themselves...all I care about is that they're true self is captured and that's where babies make me happy.
On another note, I'm slowly getting closer to creating my church's worship site. The end is getting closer I can taste it...
