1st official photo shoot

So, I said in my last post that I have been thinking about taking on photography professionally. Well, with that, I decided that I should probably start with creating/building a portfolio. I have always LOVED photography. I have over 3,000 pictures posted on my Facebook and well, my photo storage on my computer is extremely large that we are going to be getting an external hard drive soon.

I think one reason I have not yet started a business is because well 1.) I always doubt myself, which I need to stop doing. 2.) a photography hobby can be rather expensive, just like my other hobby of dancing. So, the dream of fulfilling something with photography and dance was cut short until recently when thinking about a photographers dream, again..and this time- I plan to go for it!
 I have a photographer in my family, My cousin, Jordan. Many  of you I am sure know him- I refer a lot of people to him. He is the owner of Jordan Brian Photography. He is absolutely AMAZING. He is probably the 3rd reason why i have not started anything on my own because he is just that good.I guess he intimidates me....? It would be pretty cool to keep photography in the family, Jordan lives in NJ and I live in MA and maybe just maybe...he would help me :-) ( I didn't ask) .Jordan does it all but his main focus is weddings. I would like to lean more toward children, babies, families, maternity, engagements, ect. I would totally do weddings, but that would not be my major focus when my business is securely up and running.

Here is my first photo shoot- Senior Portraits Lydia:

I made this banner that reads "Class of 3013". Purple and White are the colors of Bourne High School. 

One of Lydia's hobbies is also photography- we have that in common! :-)

Class of 2013- I love chalkboards!

beautiful fall colors
