I just recently got my first ever DSLR camera! 

 

Keep in mind, I am not a professional photographer; I wouldn't even call myself a photographer at all!  I am a photographer in training who is just now learning how to use my new camera!  Therefore, you will see a lot of OK pictures that hopefully get better as time goes on!

As I get to know my camera, I am hoping to share some frustrations and tips for other beginners out there.

What you don't know about this photo... my nephew NEER stops to smile for the camera. Normally he avoids cameras like the plague.

Today, during my lunch period, I asked our librarian if she would be my model. I think it turned out pretty cute! I still need to work on angles, posing, and lighting. But I will get there.

This was my first portrait attempt on my hubby! He was a little creeped out by my interest in snapping photos while he was working... but I think I still got a pretty good shot for the first one!
