Every time it snows out, this house in the neighborhood has letters appear on it. It usually spells out S H U R K.
Don`t know what a shurk is?

Back alley graffiti .
One of my favorite pastimes is walking down back alleys to see what I can see. And the dog loves this pastime too! :-)

Mother of the Bride
I was attending someones wedding last summer and they knew that I was "into photography" and asked me kinda to do some shots, however I didn`t get what they ASKED me to do, I still gave them some good pics for a GREAT price of $0.00.
I figured since I would already be at the wedding, and would already be carrying my "Good" camera (the DSLR CANON) that I would practice something that I wanted to try, it`s called a second shooter.
For a wedding, a photographer is hired as usual to get "THE" shots,( you know, the ones that everyone insists on), well the second hired photographer can look for other great shots, freeing up the main photographer to get even BETTER shots of the main players.
The second shooter gets, well, the secondary shots. At this wedding I tried to play that role but I wish I had asserted myself more when getting the shots. I have so many could be great shots with someones back of head in the shot. I needed to be able to walk around freely.
Communication on this shoot was horrible, but then I didn`t press anything either because I was not actualy hired or formally asked to shoot anything until JUST before the wedding. And then that threw me too, being asked to shoot something that soon I realized I had no time to research anything and weather also threw a sudden storm at us that I think messed up getting people organized and I`m sure this is all just part of the job.
I would LOVE to try this again as a hired pro. I would have better access and freedoms than that of a guest just pretending to shoot a wedding.....lol.

Siamese Connection
Saw this out and about, I always carry a camera or 2 or 3 sometimes 4 cameras with me lol.... this one was a Point and Shoot Canon camera. Not my favorite camera.
I tried to keep my shadow out of the shot and not pay attention to the store worker starring at me right beside this. lol. I saw him look over to try and figure out what I was taking a picture of.

Making sure this works for this blog, love the picture too so I share!
Photo was taken summer of 2011 at a wedding. I was asked to take some pics, this one was for me though.
After taking these pictures at the wedding I realized I like the style of "second shooter" at a wedding, so I am researching and learning more so I may attempt this again I hope!

Why
WHY am I doing this? I have a couple reasons for doing this blog. Done them before as a motivation to keep at a project or to show off what I`ve done. And lets face it, there`s really no good reason to do something that your proud of and not have anyone see that you have done it. With that I`ll post some links showing what I have done so far.

This site was just for fun, and I got bored with it, was doing it to learn how to use my lighting equipment for a "product" shot. Was fun but I think I figured it out too early and there were other things to be doing lol!
