Yea, I felt really awkward doing a self portrait with just me looking at the camera, looking away from the camera etc. But I really like this picture! You can see how happy I am, just make sure to look past the bags under my eyes! You can join the challenge too!

That's why I put music on my 30 weeks list. I bought this guitar a few years ago in hopes of learning how to play it. I learned a few chords but life got busy with our wedding and now the baby and my ever present photography ambitions so I never really learned how to play it. We keep it around in case someone comes over to record and they need a back up guitar.<br />

Someone linked it on a chat board I frequent for the Jasmine Star session a few weeks ago and I fell in love.<br />
<br />
Anyway, onto Zack. He is a phenomenal teacher and in one day has seriously impacted my photography for the better. He gave a lot of good analogies for the technical aspects of photography. I especially liked when he compared the different levels of aperture to a water faucet -it makes so much more sense now! Zack makes a great point - your photography is your business, so how can you focus on the business aspect and hope that the photo's fall into place? You have to master your craft before trying to master the business aspect. A good photographer did not get to where they are by being good at business. Sure it helps, but you can't be a good photographer without knowing your camera and all the variables that go into making a good picture.<br />
<br />
I can't wait to see what he will teach us tomorrow! Seriously, cancel the rest of your weekend, grab a notebook and check out Zack Arias at <a href="http://www.creativelive.com/live">Creative Live! </a>Camden's Mommyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04425140596677759259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558353277846409446.post-46683312881404133442011-04-29T07:15:00.000-07:002011-04-29T07:15:38.000-07:00How do you know?How do you know if you're meant to do what you are doing? I look through my pictures and second guess myself all the time. I just don't know if I'm supposed to be doing this. I know that not every picture is going to look awesome straight out of camera, or even after some editing, but sometimes I think I'm just not good enough.<br />
<br />
I mean, I think I have the creativity part down pretty well, but the technical part.... not so much. I've been paying more attention to focus, lighting, shadows etc, but it's hard to know if it's making a difference.<br />
<br />
I think Jasmine Star said it best "I am a chicken, I should just lay an egg to complete the transformation." I am a chicken, now I just need to transform into a photographer :)Camden's Mommyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04425140596677759259noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558353277846409446.post-38260559455094036592011-04-28T14:08:00.000-07:002011-04-28T19:16:08.929-07:00Big things are coming!I am so excited, I have two friends that are having baby girls and one of them is due any day!
