Something is not right, something is quite wroooong

Can I just say wow? Either I need to practice or my camera settings are quite wroooong! See it's all me but of course it doesn't help that its Phil in the picture either. =) The processing actually didn't take very long but it was such a huge adjustment! I underexpose generally on purpose since an underexposure, especially RAW, tends to be a lot easier to fix than an overexposure with blown out areas. But I had to post this before and after photo because of how much of a difference there is from start to finish. I must say I like this photo. Its a good one of Phil. Only I could make him look this good. lol. J/K!!!

OOOOHHHHH Yeah!!!

I am now a firm believer in Craigslist. Okay I always have been, except for the whole job posting thing--things always fall through in that section. **sigh**, BUT back to the parts that always come through--I saw a posting for a lady who was looking for a Photography Assistant to help her out at weddings (and not an equipment carrying person but an actual second shooter). Which is a fabulous deal for me since I'm not completely set up to walk into the wedding market and keep it debt free so it's going to take me a little longer, but I'm sure once I buy everything in cash it will just work so much better. ;). Anyhow, I got the job! I am going to be second shoot assisting and getting the wedding experience I desperately want. This is who I'll be working with. Check it out~and I'm so excited!!

Because we have no shame

And it was a rainy rainy rainy rainy rainy day...oh, and we discovered that the mac has more effects!

Pooches & Smooches!

Can I just say how much I love my Poufy. Well...except the past two days she has really driven me crazy. She doesn't even do full barks, just these snotty little half bark-grunts. Nevertheless between her and my mom's encouragement I am branching out Urban Rose to do pets. Pooches & Smooches Photography. Isn't that too cute? So excited about the idea that I came up with a logo and everything. Now I'm just working on the site. Now to get clients...got to take a walk around the neighborhood as soon as our Poufers gets out of heat. She's drivin' the men crazy!

Here's a peek at my new logo. I've been at the computer all day and the only good thing about that is I'm too busy to eat too much.

Janua....Oops. February 2, 2009

So where did February show up from!?! Holy Cow. Well school has started officially and I'm getting into the groove. Now I just need to find a job so that I can afford to stay in school right now. So that's what I've been trying to do is raise money to stay--check out some the designs I'm selling. Great for photographers and can be created for the consumer wanting a great card or announcement. If I don't raise my money I'm afraid I'll be out of school for another semester. SJSU is definitely not a charity. =)

On the bright side, I've totally enjoyed having a Facebook account. And making friends has been friends. Totally had to give them a plug. =)

Okay here's todays--bored in front of the mac.



Today I learned: It feels good to give.
