Diving Right In!!

Yesterday I met with Mrs. Fields and got to see how she does some editing of photos. She shot a wedding last weekend, and it was really cool to see how she would brighten, fix blemishes, whiten teeth, and so much more! It was amazing!!!! We went over her schedule, and I am going to tag along with her on an engagement shoot next weekend. Even better, she is actually in a wedding in September, and she asked me to be the photographer. She said the bride was going to hire some other girl, but Danielle told her to wait and see if I was available! I can't wait! What will be nice about that wedding is that Danielle will still be there to help and give me suggestions.

Last weekend, Kirk and I went to the beach with some of our friends. I got some good pictures there.

One Step Closer.....

"YIPEE" says Laramie for her Brit!

I met with a fantastic photographer, Danielle Fields, today! She is such a cool lady, and I get to apprentice with her, starting next week! We talked for at least an hour about all sorts of things, photography related and otherwise. I am super, super excited, because this is the big step I need to pursue my photography dreams. What's even cooler about work with her is that she works at GCSU, in the continuing education department, so weekends and evenings are when she does most of her photography work...fitting perfectly with my schedule! I am ready to be her sponge and learn all I can about the craft!!! Check out her website by clicking here.

Kaylee Ann Turns 1!

Kaylee Ann is the daughter of Kirk's best friend , Thomas. She turns 1 on July 10. Thomas and his wife, Michelle, came over for a visit, a car repair session, and a few 1st birthday shots. These are a few images from the shoot!

This is Kirk with Kaylee...she sometimes confused him for her daddy-based on the hairy legs she could touch!

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to!!

July 4, 2008

Kirk and I went to Lake Martin for the 4th, to visit my family at our lake house! It was the first time almost all of us had been together since Thanksgiving, and we won't be again until our wedding in October. I took advantage of the opportunity and set up a few shots of my cousins in order to work more on my portraits. Here are a few images that I captured!

Starting Fresh

Hey there! My name is Brit and I am an aspiring photographer. I have always been behind the camera, taking pictures of friends, family, animals, nature, and more. It wasn't until I started planning my wedding that I seriously looked into photography as a career. Looking at all the options for a wedding photographer only heightened my desire to capture those special, once in a lifetime moments. I love to photograph people from before they are born through all life's milestones. I also enjoy capturing those sweet animals we call our pets, including dogs, fish, cows, and more! Please feel free to check back periodically, as I will be updating along my path to becoming a professional photographer! :-)
