So I happened across some blog the other day, and the lady was a painter. A very good painter I might add. Just in case she ever happens upon my blog. Which I'm sure will never happen. Anyways, she was letting some one have it for coping her artwork. I felt so horribly sorry for that poor person. But, hay it sounds like she probably deserved it. I'm just saying! It made me start thinking of all the wonderful people who's photography I love. (Heather, Jessie, AbiQ) I really try my hardest not to be a copy cat. But I definitely get a lot of ideas from looking at other peoples work. That being said I'm making a photographers pledge (I just made that up b-t-w. What? All the cool kids are doing it.) I pledge to be original, as original as photography can be. I pledge that if I do decide to be a copy cat I will give the person who I copied full credit.(Which I typically do now anyways. I'm always the first to out myself when I copy someone.) Woo, okay Now that I got that off my chest I can move onto my next topic.
If your no stranger to this blog, then you know how much I have fallen in love with photography. It is crazy ridiculous to be honest. If I'm not shooting, or editing. I want to be. I have gotten lots of compliments which I honestly do appreciate. Trust me, no one critiques a picture more than the photographer. My class is going okay. I love learning all the new techniques. But I really have a hard time photographing things that...well...arn't people. I am also having a hard time printing on the school printers. There's like a thousand steps, and if you miss one, it screws up the whole process. Anyways, back to my point. It's kind of been a running joke as to when I'm going to start charging. When I make that decision you all will be the first to know. There are so many
Just wanted to mention that my family watched Disney's Wall-e for the first time tonight. All I can say is, "WOW"!
Last thing, I think??? I love naming my pictures. I think it's really fun. It's usually something I do when I save my edits. Just so I know exactly what, and where they are. The titles usually sound like a knock off of a famous song, or a line from an episode of friends. Here I'll show you what I mean. This is " It's a hard rock life".
I know extremely cheesy. But fun none the less. So once again I'm outing myself because in the future I want to have a name that photo contest. Copied from non other then MckMama herself. So stay tuned for that.Okay this really is the last thing I promise. My cousin emailed me a link to a pretty cool food storage blog. Thought some of you might like it.

First off...I have never felt that you copy me. Second, there are so many photographers out there, that even if you do something totally original chances are that somebody has already done it. So seriously don't worry about it.....
The only thing I am offended about is you trying to copy my coolness. But I will let you capture that for free in a photo.
