David and Jen

Way back when I first got my camera (May) a friend that I worked with had just gotten engaged. They let me take some engagement pictures of them and I learned a lot from doing it! I learned that I really needed to learn more about exposure and lighting - key elements in photography. I like to think that since then I have gotten better about those things, but I still have a long way to go!

I can spend a lot of time reading about anything photography or photoshop. That is how I know that I really am interested. Anything else can't hold my attention long enough.

Here are some of the pictures that I took of this couple. They were so fun! He could pull out the goofiest faces and definitely made me laugh. And what the gentleman! There were four of us, him and three girls. He would open all of our doors every time we got in and out of the car. Chivalry is not dead after all.

(I am still working on posing and angles, too. It's fun to play around with different ideas to find out what looks good and what doesn't.)
