But I really, really, really like pretending to be a photographer!
And when I got to spend the weekend learning from a real photographer (former teacher), I was beyond excited!
An updated Top Ten list of things I've learned lately.
Ten: There is a difference in black and white styles. And I now have an amazing action named "Amy's BW" in my action folder.
Nine: Speaking of actions. I went ahead and recorded some of my favorite edits. It's amazing how much faster the editing process is.
Eight: Boys aren't as patient with photos if you are married to them. Work fast.
Seven: Kids prefer parks to photos. Work faster.
Six: Don't forget what you've already learned (see #7).
Five: Toes are pretty. They should be photographed. ;)
Four: Blankets in the park make for adorable pictures. Frame them and hang them in your bedroom. Don't post them on facebook for his buddies to see.
Three: If said blanket in the park photo is posted on facebook, be prepared to do some major negotiating for your next round of pictures.
Two: I have a lot. No. A ton. To learn in photoshop and about photography. I need another cousin date soon!
And the number One thing I learned about photography this weekend:
It's not a good photographic location unless there is the fear of tetanus!
