I just purchased the 5D. It’s amazing. I knew it would be. Love it and don’t understand why I didn’t get one earlier (except that I wasn’t working, had two kids to raise and didn’t have time to think about new purchases) but that aside, seriously, you gotta get one ;)

The 5D paired with my two new lenses was an incredible experience today. I can’t wait to do a wedding with them this weekend. Here are a few photos I took around the house tonight as I experimented. I must add…these are STRAIGHT out of camera…no editing (even shot in black and white for experiments sake).

PHOTOGRAPHY TIP FOR YOU: When using a wide angle lens turn your lens hood around. I love this photo but the dark corners almost ruin it.

Kassi (my stock model) has made the front page of www.shutterstock.com

This is a first for me. It will be VERY exciting to see where it goes. I’m still in the midst of web redesign, sorting through galleries of images and playing with my new camera and lenses. The rain is welcomed by me since I have lots of indoor things to do.

Check out my photo and stay tuned for images with new 16mm soon!

I’ve been very inspired my new lens lately. That mixed with how great these three were dressed this morning, I had to take some photos. Unfortunately my kids weren’t as inspired as me. Instead they each insisted on having the truck.
