Playing with motion... some self portrait fun.

Another Self Portrait

To be honest, I am still trying to get the hang of this whole blogging thing. I promised myself that I would post at least 3 times a week. I am trying to put up pictures that I absolutely love, but sometimes I go through a week or 10 days without taking a photo. Sooooo I find myself looking though old photos to put up. I am going to stick with this blog because it means a lot to me to put my photos out there, but some days you are going to get old self portraits like this...

I am off to an engagment party this weekend which is being held at a Hunting Club. I will try and see if I can come away with a few shots for all to see. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Self Portrait

Let me start by saying that I love Flickr. If you are part of that community, and have searched around the amazing work there then you know that the amazing self portraits being posted are endless. This is an example of me trying to find my contribution to that community...

A Little About Me...

I have been dabbling in photography for many years, but I want this "hobby" to turn into more. I finally became serious when I moved to NYC. I will post many pictures in the days to come that show my time in that amazing city. This was a phenomenal place to find my own voice behind the lens, so to speak. Prior to NYC I was captivated by landscapes of beautiful mountains, lakes and anything that kept me close to nature. NYC pushed me to find beauty outside my traditional views, and for that I am forever thankful to the big apple. My biggest kick at the moment are portraits. So here is a self portrait to start things off: 

Day One...

I am so excited to venture into the world of blogging! I have fallen in love with my camera, and I find happiness through images. Happiness doesn't always come easy, and is sometimes more enjoyed when it catches you by surprise, or when you find that all the hard work you put into something pans out. Photography can give you the best of all worlds. Sometimes at the magic hour everything becomes easy. At other times I find myself working so hard to make everything perfect. Usually I am surprised at what catches my eye when I sit down and sort through the shots of the day.

I am entranced by the power of images, and when I am behind my lens the world pauses leaving me completely in the moment. Photography has become my meditaiton.  I hope to share these moments with you as a chronicle of the places my lens takes me.
