Planning Photoshoots

One of the biggest challenges that I have discovered with photography is figuring out what to shoot. Several months back I went to a park and started shooting pictures and then shortly realized that it seemed a little freaky that I was shooting pictures of people that I don't even know. I mean, thank God no one said anything. I don't know what I would have said if someone had. However, since that experience I have been a little bit more aware of the importance of planning where to go to shoot, and since I love animals, I decided yesterday that I would purchase 2 year round passes to the San Diego Zoo for Rudy and myself. I am so excited, these passes allow us to get into the Zoo and the Wild Animal Park as many times as we would like for the next 12 months. WOW!!!! Now I am planning when we are going to go. I think maybe 2 weeks from today - I know that doing both parks in one day is a little much, so I am looking forward to actually planning another day where we will visit the park that we don't visit on our first venture out. Taking pictures of people is fun and I do look forward to shooting more people, but I think at least for now i ought to shoot only people that I know. I mean, I don't think I want to be known as that "freaky" lady with a camera-:))

Website is up!!!!

Well, everyone, Photography Garage website is finally up. I am so excited to step out into this new and amazing direction. Life can be just so busy at times that having one, two, or maybe even three different things that can help take you away from the everyday stuff that we face all the time can be nice. I find it to be relaxing although many people I know think that I am completely insane for everything that it is I do. But really everyone, I love staying busy, and this kind of stuff helps me to unwind and relax. So let's all have a bit of fun and I invite you all to join me on this photography journey that God has placed upon my heart-:))

Welcome to Photography Garage

Well everyone, this is my first blog for photography and I am still working out a bunch of fine little details. But my hope and desire is that this will be a place where we can share our thoughts and experiences with photography. I am not a professional photographer but would consider myself to be somewhat of a photogeek. I love taking pictures and look forward to sharing all of my experiences with it with all of you - and with that - I shall say good bye, and hopefully by this time tomorrow my actual photographygarage website will be up and running - :))
