I got a great camera for mother's day last year and it has become a
hobby of mine to take pictures. I want to get all the practice I can so
I can get better. There are so many things my camera can do that I
haven't even figured out. It seems like the possibilities are endless.
I practice on friends kids and my own of course. The camera takes
great pictures and I've been toying with the idea of entering it as a
service to be auctioned off at our annual Scout Auction and Pancake Breakfast.
I'm a little nervous though because people will be paying money, which
goes toward the scouts, and I'm not a professional. I plan on
specifying that it will be a photo session with an amateur photographer.
I was also thinking of having sample pictures so people know what to
expect. I'm just really afraid I'll take the pictures and they'll be
like, "What, we paid for this." I don't have photoshop and all these
pictures are straight out of the camera. Although, I like many of them
that way. (Though I wouldn't mind having photoshop to play around with.)
The only exception are the birthday ones of my cousins little boy. She
photoshopped them on her computer before she put them on her blog. Tell me honestly blog readers....would you be willing to pay for pictures like these? |

That's a great idea Rachelle.
I'd pay for a session.
I think they're all great especially that one of that cute girl with the pink hair bow on and the boy with the dark hair after her ;)
Melissa the proceeds do go to charity but I'd do it for you whether you bid or not. I need Practice,Practice,Practice!
I think you've got a gift Rachelle. Anyone can aim and shoot, but only those with a special eye can be patient enough or persevering enough to get the great shots. You're getting them!
go for it Rachelle. Plus the more pressure you feel the more you learn
mi photoshop es tu photoshop :) You are totally welcome to come over any evening and play with your pics to your heart's content. That program is like your camera--so many possibilities and I haven't got a clue!
I just wish I had something so awesome to contribute! Just offer to take the pictures and have them upload them on their own computer to do with them what they will . . . it takes the pressure off of you!!! And gives them freedom to play around with them. The more practice you get the better you become. It is amazing how your camera captures the true beauty of the children! Love them! Oooo . . . wouldn't Senior pictures be fun???
