{crochet}
Other than this blog being about cameras and photography, I figured that I would mix it up a little bit more and blog about crochet. I have been crocheting only since November and I am a self taught crochet-er...is that even a word? I learned mostly for watching youtube....yes youtube! I plan on sharing some of the videos that I used to follow when I was just learning. And if you plan on starting to crochet do yourself a favor and start off SLOW. I tried to just jump in and start crocheting hats, wrong move! I highly suggest that if you are just starting out to just make a square. Make a medium sized chain and single crochet all the way down and back up.

From my experience with crochet a hat is one of the easiest things to make. You don't have to worry about your stitch being too tight or not tight enough, and for a beginner it is really easy to pick up. The following link will be a video that has 7 different tutorials in one. The more popular slouchy beanies, that I have made several of, are also a part of this video.

{Forever and always}
E-sessions are starting to become a favorite. I don't know if it's just because I have been shooting them a lot lately since it's wedding season or just the excitement of being a part of something so special. Typically if I am doing a couple's e-session then I have their wedding too, so I guess you could say that these sessions act as an ice breaker as well. E-sessions take a couple hours to complete since I normally use multiple locations, therefore it gives me plenty of time to get to know the couple even better, get awesome photos, and most importantly have FUN! As always I am more than grateful for the couples that I have worked with in the past and look forward to meeting the ones in the future! This past Tuesday I had the pleasure of taking my future brother-in law and his fiance's engagement photos. I have never done a session this late and I was worried about lighting at first, however now that it's done the lighting was great! Hopefully I'll get to do more during early evening or just before sunset. Here are a couple favorites from their session.
