This is what I learned today 9/21/12
http://www.designmom.com/2012/03/prepping-for-a-family-photoshoot/#comment-354323 Today I read an article called "Family Photo Shoot" on google reader.
There are lots of things that go into doing a family photo shoot. First, picking the the location, there are lots of different ideas that families like such as, beaches, the park, the city, a lake, and fields. Second, picking the time of day (when it's the brightest). Next, picking poses and how you're going to set up the photos. Then last, editing the photos based on what the family prefers.
It was a great little article about a life as a photographer.

Who am I? I am a Junior in high school and am experiencing with a blog. I'm very adventurous, passionate, and love art.
I'm very outgoing and love to try new things, if that maybe be eating octopus or going on a huge zip line. I also love to travel and experience other cultures and see how people live.
My passion is to serve. To serve is a huge part of my life and means a lot to me. Being able to travel the world and help people in need would be a dream come true. I have so much and am very fortunate to live in the USA but being able to go to Haiti 2 months ago was life changing. Being able to see and experience how joyful they are all the time impacted me so much. Riding in the back of the tap tap every morning and getting 2 handed waves from little kids that didn't even have clothes on their back was incredible. I live to let the Lord shine through me no matter what I do, if that is walking through the halls at school or handing a Haitian child a bowl of food.
As I travel the world and as I serve I love to take pictures and paint them. Photography is life changing and is very powerful. I thrive to get that chill as I take and also look at pictures.
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
