I have been messing around with photography for a while now. I remember when I was little, I liked to be the one snapping the photos on the family trip. I bought many cheap-o cameras to capture memories throughout high school and undergrad.
Marriage brought my first digital camera - a Canon point and shoot. I borrowed it from Kerry when my brother and I went out to Yellowston fishing during 2005. We used it for our honeymoon in 2006. Things took a big change in 2007, when Kerry and I went out to Colorado and we borrowed her brother's Canon Rebel DSLR. It took me a few years, but I bought one (Canon D40)...and really it has all been down hill from there!
Like most hobbies I have gotten into, I start them by reading... a lot. My stack of photography books is growing, as well as my supplies. I like playing with different "tools".... but what can you expect. I'm an engineer. I'm anal, detail-orientated, a somewhat of a tech junkie.
I'm also a life-time learner. I'm finishing up my 3rd degree (May 2012 here I come!!). And its not that I need more to do, because I have way more than enough - full time job which is typically 60 hrs/week, one class this semester, a basement to finish, and a baby to get ready for - for me to get better and learn more about photography, I need to use it more. This is what I hope to accomplish with this blog.
