It’s Your Turn!

I will be continuing “Best of 2013” next week with weddings and engagements! Cannot wait! So many pretty clients will be covering the blog throughout the week! šŸ™‚ But for this post, I want to turn the table around ā€¦ I want to know what YOU want to hear from me! I’ve never done anything like this before, but I have received emails with questions so why not do a series of Q&A blog postings throughout the year! šŸ™‚

So what I need from you is a question by commenting below this blog posting ā€¦ whether it is a technical, artistic, branding, organization, equipment, client management ā€¦ or even just a personal life question I would be more than happy to do a blog post regarding it! Let me know your thoughts and I look forward to hearing from you!!!

office_virginia_wedding_photographer-37_webI was planning to take a photo for this posting, but my camera is at the camera shop getting cleaned/prepped for the 2014 season to begin! šŸ™‚ So a photo of where I work everyday it is! Whoa ā€¦ and I just realized how much the hanging plant in front of my window LOVES the space! This photo was taken in August and now the vines are two feet from the ground right now!!!

    I’d like to know more about photo equipment, both camera and editing. I’ve always loved photography (even though just as an ametur at this point). But I’ve loved to get more into it eventually.
