How I Save Money on Photography Equipment (Buy Used!)

I’ve purchased my share of photography equipment over the last twenty or so years.  (Maybe more than my share?)  I’ve always loved my purchases, but I’ve learned some things along the way. It seems I’ve always been on a “how to improve my photography” quest. Tips for purchasing used equipment are below the photos! This…

Capture Memories of Childhood Places

Our neighborhood library closed a few weeks ago. It made me sad. No worries, the brand new one that was built to replace it is huge, light-filled, and amazing. But, the library that closed was the library of my children’s childhood, so our last visit there before it closed was a bit sad.  Even a little…

Our Simple Photo Christmas Card

When my kids were little, I’d faithfully take their “Christmas card picture” every year, usually in front of our Christmas tree. I was a stickler for details when it came to the clothes for those photos – new outfits, candy cane tights for my daughter, and with her dresses, the “bow shoes” of course. I’m not sure…

Develop Your Child’s Creativity by Sharing Your Hobbies

In my family history, there seems to be a genetic tendency to be obsessed with photography.  My dad loved it, and he inspired me.  One of my sisters still shoots film, and while her style is much different than mine, her candid shots of family events capture memories that would otherwise be missed.  (And, if…

A Comeback Hodgepodge

Since my last post, spring happened, and  I’m so sorry to have been absent for so long!  A little bit of health scare for my husband (he’s o.k.), a trip to Jupiter, Florida, family events, and one tired me later, I am back in the blogging groove.  The trees are a lot greener, the sky…
