Guys, I'm super stoked!
Photography has always been something I've loved. A little hobby that brings a smile to my face. For years my favorite thing in the world has been taking pictures of friends and family for all their different occasions . . . but for the most part, it was always put on the back burner.
A few years ago, my friends asked me to take engagement pictures for them. Normally I'd think it was no big deal, but for whatever reason, I got super choked up! I mean, I was excited, but I didn't feel I had the goods to take someones engagement pics. I mean, those are super important! Well, they were to me. Anyway. Since then, I've been itching to take classes. Not that I necessarily think I don't know enough or am not good enough, but just to build my confidence and make me feel ok asking for and accepting money for my work.
Well, I've finally done it! I finally found classes, that I believed were legitimate and affordable. They're taught by a Brooks Institute graduate, which already had me weak in the knees. Ever since I first picked up a camera, I swooned over the dream of going to Brooks. But, my parents thinking it was just a phase I was going through, said it was too expensive. Which, has some merit. Brooks is a pretty expensive private school. Anyway -- this is like, the next best thing for me. One day, when the hubs has loads of moolah, and my babes are all independent, and we for whatever reason decide to move to Santa Barbra . . . I'll attend that oh-so dreamy school. But probably not until after I get that masters from Penn State I've been dreaming about (whaa-wha).
I'm just excited I'm finally allowing myself the chance to focus on me and my passion. It's not the traditional pampering of ones self, but for me, this is the best! I have classes and assignments. Oh gol-ly, I'm giddy!
Tune in for updates on my other blog. I normally don't do crossover posts. But this was just too cool for me.
