Learning to shoot in low-light...

And so far- not too impressed with my ability. Bleh.


It seems as though it's much easier said than done:(


Well, I guess it'll just take LOTS AND LOTS more practice:(


But horray for friends -hang- out- and -eat- junk- food night- turning into random worship!!!:) <3 Can't beat that!

Yachi's Jewelry Project...

So the amazing, talented, beautiful Yachi designed some jewelry ( and clothes which you will be seeing in MACY'S SOON!!!! WOW!!!!)

But she asked me to take some pictures for her with her jewelry... just as practice for me and if they turn out ok, she can use them to sell the jewelry.

I'm only using 2 pics (not the 2 pics below) for the actual ad but Yachi was so so so so so beautiful in so many pictures- so I'm actually going to post them ALLL!!! ok, maybe not all- but a lot of them! But until then and until I finish the actual jewelry ad... here's just a sneak peek.

NOTE: I did absolutely nothing to her face! I shot overexposed intentionally to play with it in editing- but the pics just looked so beautiful- i had to leave them- SHE IS JUST THAT GORGEOUS!!!!!!

my first week in photography...

Well, I've had my camera for a week now and haven't had too many opportunities to shoot anything. And from what I HAVE gotten, I haven't been able to edit a whole lot.

So here's just a couple that I've been able to experiment and play around with! UGH! Just a couple out of 353 pictures!!!

PEACE OUT HOME SLICES!

First play time on the compy

Shots aren't too great,

haven't gone out shootin peeps yet- 

But so many things to play with on the compy!

FIRST EVER...

I'm diving head first. I've been talking about it for so long- and 2 weeks ago, I made the decision- that I will commit to it. 

My ultimate goal is to be a fiiine cinematographer aka director of photography. I want to create what you see when you're watching a film on the silver screen. However, I can't be the best at that until I practice practice practice. How do I practice lighting and composition and sharpen my creative eye without time to prep a film crew/ cast? 

With a photo camera. Besides, isn't that how films began in the first place? As time goes on, I can and will open more time to work with a film crew very soon. (Here's hoping that this decision with help me financially someday) But for now, this is where my heart will be while I continue to pour into some exiting upcoming film projects. 

My passion is art and photography- even though my idea of photography has been in motion pictures- I see the beauty in everything and I'm ready to capture that beauty and allow myself to feel alive doing what I love to do everyday!

Give me a few months- a year to really find a style and be decent enough to work with. I'm starting from scratch never having picked up a real camera and never having touched photoshop. 

But until I get decent, I invite you to keep up with my progress and PLEASE offer feedback. I have no idea what I'm doing- so I'll certainly need it:)

God Bless- and here we go!:) <3

Maggie is the wonderful woman who sold me my camera. She left me a nice picture on the disc telling me to enjoy the camera. Sooo...

 

C'mon Us Postal Service

Dear USPS, 
   I buy and sell your stamps daily. I feel as though I've treated you well throughout the years and ultimately feel like I need to be treated the same way back. Please give me my camera so that I can start my life and go out into the world and capture moments that life will otherwise forget! Thank you.


     Love, 
        Giny
