-I photographed my first wedding Tuesday August 7, 2012. I had a blast! It was my first paid gig and I pulled it off. I took 501 pictures (which isn't much from what I've read others take) but everyone of them are pretty good. The wedding was relatively small and took place at a restaurant. It was a lovely reception and I think the bride and groom will be very pleased with the images. I would like to get a couple more lenses but then photographing more weddings is definitely something I'd be interested in. I am very thankful that the bride and groom give me the opportunity. There are very few people that would give a 17 year old with no wedding experience a shot at capturing their big day. Hopefully with the photographs I have captured, I can attract more clients now. I will post them very soon.
-Also, I am thinking about getting a Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 lens. Is it better than the kit lens? I have read that it is and has been used as a wedding photography lens. I would also be using it to photograph newborns (my other choice of photography subjects). I can get it for $200. What do you guys think?
-I am photographing a newborn in a week and may have another gig coming up. :) I am glad I am getting the opportunity to expand my portfolio. I have photographed most of the children in my family. I have only posted a couple of the photos on here of each but there are plenty more. I'll get around to posting them all eventually.
Just some other thoughts:
-I'm going to be buying some L lenses soon. Or at least one. Which though? I want a fast lens (f2.8 preferably). I would like a zoom lens. Probably a lower zoom like 24-70 etc. But you guys tell me which one produces sharp images and is worth the money.
-I had three teeth pulled yesterday. It was just awful! Wisdom teeth... :(
-I have been thinking about buying a new camera. I currently have the Canon EOS Rebel T2i but I think I would benefit more from some new good quality lenses instead. Opinions?
-I might get a job at Red Lobster soon. I have an interview next week. :)
-School starts back August 20th. Ever since I started college over a year ago I have loaded myself up with 5-6 classes each semester. I think this semester I am just going to do the three classes I need and then an easy online class since I have a 12 credit scholarship that pays for it anyways. That way I will have more time to work on photography as well as possibly work (fingers crossed) and just relax some.

Sorry for such a long journal entry about my life. I just felt like blabbering. :)

New Lenses

2 min read
Okay, so I am hoping to get some new Canon lenses... I have the two kit lenses but I want MORE!! I really want the 50mm f1.4. I will probably buy that Friday.. What other lenses would you recommend? Keep in mind that I am on a tight budget. But... my birthday is coming up in August :) I am photographing a wedding coming up in August as well. I have started shooting people rather than just nature. I just haven't gotten around to making another deviantart for the people photography. (I don't want to mix nature with people). What do you guys recommend?? Also, how do y'all feel about putting film lenses (with adapters) on digital cameras? I have heard from some that it's a cheap alternative that can work nicely if you get a good film lens. I also understand that I would be shooting in manual mode and I have no problem with that. (I would be using these lenses on other shoots that aren't so dependent on timing).

As a side note, I start my second photography class in August. It's the digital class. (Film was the first class). I am pretty excited about that :)

On June 1st I will officially be a high school graduate :) I can't wait!!! I already got my cap an gown and awards so it's only a matter of time :)
And to make things even sweeter in about two weeks I am going to Tennessee. I'm so excited to get to photograph the mountains and waterfalls. It's been a very long time since I went to Tennessee. The last time I visited I wasn't really into photography so this trip is going to be ten times more fun! I promise to TRY to post photos as I go in tennessee. If not while I'm there as soon as I get back :)
