It went really well considering this is my first foray behind the lens. I did some homework before hand, picking the brains of various photogs that I know. I read some books, and drew upon my own knowledge from my stint at a model. There is still so much to learn, but it’s fun and I’m off to a great start. I think of the 624 shots — yes! — we certainly got some good stuff, and the editing I will do can help where we’re lacking. I’ve got some work ahead of me, but I will definitely post them when I’m done.
You know, my big hair is what got me into modeling, what kept the bookings coming, and since I’ve cut it, I haven’t heard much. At first, I was kind of ticked, but now I’m getting all Zen. What if my modeling experience was just the first step towards where I am now, behind the lens? What if that experience then, that experience yesterday is lining me up for where I’m going next? I don’t know where that will be, just as I didn’t know where the modeling was going to take me. Still, I’m going, one foot in front of the other, camera in hand.
