Blue Lily Rocks My World

Dear Lovies,

So. For my birthday, Daddy got me a brand new Canon Rebel and a 2 hour beginner's class with Wendy from Blue Lily. It. Was. Awesome!!

Then life took over and I couldn't get the camera out till yesterday when we were at the park with friends. Riah wasn't in much of a modeling mood but luckily our buddy Jack-Jack was. Check this out!



The coolest thing is that I shot these in Manual mode. AND I know the specs.... F stop 5, shutter speed at 1/250 and ISO 400. And I even know what that means!!! Isn't that amazing?! Combine that with the editing tips my good friend Haleigh gave me, and I am on my way!

Can you tell I'm a little excited?! The funniest part is that I just know what you guys are in for...a lifetime of Mom saying, "Just smile!! Not THAT smile, your nice smile!! Look at the camera!! You guys are driving me nuts!!"

Yeah, it'll be fun.
