Well, it's not great, but I'm ready to show my new website, www.sweetportrayal.com. It's for my photography "business." If you look at it, please ignore all the ads, and focus on my site - it costs too much for now to go ad-free.
Now, don't think I see myself as a professional because of this. I really just created the site so that I could use it to find some subjects to practice on. Since we dont't have many friends here, and no family members here, willing subjects are hard to find. So I posted an ad for free senior pictures on Craigslist. But of course, you can't post an ad asking people to let you take pictures of them without letting them see that you're not totally untalented...although I have seen some people post their "portfolio's" and they look like something I took when I was a kid. It's like they say, "better to stay quiet and let people wonder if you're an idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt"(or something like that). I just hope that people that tell me my pictures look good are telling me the truth, because somebody had to have told the other people that posted their portfolios that they looked good too. Well, I have to learn somehow...and I havent had any luck finding a good course yet, so I guess for now I will just be reading and practicing as much as I can.
So that was Summer…

i didn't know you were dabbling with photography. go for it. i think you do a great job. you need to put more of your pics on your website :) also, i can't believe how old your niece is; i can remember her being a little squirt of a thing when she was about 6
Thanks for the encouragement! Yeah, isn't it amazing how old Emily is. It makes me feel old. I only see her a few times a year, so each time I see her and Maggie I am so shocked to see how much they've grown. When I was taking pictures of Emily I was actually worrying about cleavage!
