Beginning a Journey

So....I have decided to embark upon a journey and thought it would be great to blog about it. I have been at this photography thing for a few years now, but recently decided to take it more serious and turn it into a small business. Many people have asked me to take pictures for them, but I never really took it too serious for some reason. I got to thinking....good memories are the single most important and precious gift to a child, or a person of any age, really, and I want to help preserve those memories.

So, I contemplated for a while how to go about getting the ball rolling. I have tons of photos of my own 2 children, who are beautiful models for me( they really don't much of a choice ha!) but I need more than practicing on my own kids. So I started telling my co-workers that I was going to start a photography business and would love to capture their families enjoying being a family.

Being that I am a full-time Soldier, I have to make sure my passion does not interfere with my duty to my country....there lies the balance issue. Hmmmm....I guess I will just have see where this goes!  A few shots of my beautiful kids. It's seems almost a cheat to practice on such beautiful models!
