Profile Information
- About Me and My Photography Experience:
- Photography is a relatively new passion and it's really NEW ... just since November 2010. I've had cameras all my life but they were just inexpensive film cameras and then inexpensive point & shoots.
I am married to a wonderful guy and in May we will celebrate 32 years of marriage but nearly 36 years together. We have two beautiful and amazing daughters who are married and on their own. Our first grandson will be born any day now! We cannot wait!!
We have two labs, a 7 year old yellow lab named Emmie and a 6 year old black lab mix (rescued) named Bella.
Our daughters weddings were really what caused me to really think about photography and how amazing it can be and how there is so much more to it than just pointing and shooting. I was fortunate to have been able to follow the photographer and I was amazed at all the techniques he used compositionally that I was not aware of at all.
So when I was preparing to go to a wedding in October 2010, I decided that an upgrade would be perfect, since my point & shoot could not hold a battery charge. I thought the Super Zoom would be perfect and would be enough, but after taking some free classes, I quickly learned that I need a DSLR and alas I got it one year ago in March 2011!!
So now I'm so excited for what I'm learning! I see the world now through completely different eyes. I think photography can be a sort of worship to the Lord if you know what I mean. Seeing the beauty that HE created and then capturing it in a way that's pleasing to Him and to others. I'm super excited, as well, to be in the company of such amazing photographers here on this site!

Angela Shearon said… Hi Janna,
Thanks for the invite! Your photos are lovely. I am just getting started and getting acquainted with the Cannon Rebel t3i...it is my first DSLR, so, learning all the navigation of the buttons, etc. I do love it so far. I have had it a little over 1 month, have taken tons of photos with it. I am excited to be using it and learning all about it! I am doing this for "fun" but maybe some day it will be more that that.

FLORENTINO ACOSTA said… One of the best lesson I have learned from my brothers was, " respect your client". Meaning,be professional and always be prepared. And from NYIP,well, you had probably heard this before, " KNOW YOUR SUBJECT,FOCUS, AND SIMPLIFY " .

For me enrolling at NYIP became a foundation. It opened a lot of windows for me that I never thought it was possible. I have learned to see and not just looking. I became more discipline in my compositions. My big brothers were all in the wedding photography business and they taught me a lot and NYIP filled up the blanks. Before NYIP I was a self taught and have read a lot of books but that didn't gave me a solid learning. It was a refresher and it solidified all that I have learned as a photographer. But then again Ansel Adams didn't have a formal training. So why enroll now?

Gary Walters said… A weding client called me last week about a year after the wedding to do some family shots being they had a new baby. The baby was 3 weeks old and unless they are alseep there isn't much you can do. I felt totally silly and helpless. It may as well been a ball of snakes or a wet cat. i don't know how anybody does that and my hats off to those who can.
