These are my adorable kids. I call myself a semi-professional photographer. I have my AA in photography. I was not paid for these pictures, but here is a good smattering of the pictures I have taken in the course of the last two years in everyday life. This is also a good example of the quality of pictures from my new camera. In photography school I learned a few valuable lessons.
1. Take a ton of pictures. We would take a whole roll of film and turn in only one or two pictures. I got these pictures by taking lots of other pictures, and out of 10 pictures on average--I got these great pictures. I was looking at my copy of Emily's wedding. I was only at the temple. I took 200 pictures and got 20 I was really proud to show. Many of them are good. But I got 20 GREAT pictures.
2. Use your focus! Don't worry about cutting out the background stuff. Focus in. Get Close. My favorite pictures are ones I get up close to take.
3. Keep your camera close. You never know when you will get a GREAT oppertunity for a GREAT picture. I remember just a year ago. It was cold enough that it froze all the sprinkler water on the top of the grass. And I was there delivering papers just as the sun came up. By the time I got to go get my camera it had all melted. This morning I got a way cute picture of Kylee only because my camera was right there.
So here are pictures I have taken--call it the best of Cassy's blogging.
Amber was my very first roommate. I was not her photographer, but I went to the wedding.
Tiffany's wedding--again, I was not her photographer, but I went.
After wedding activities!

After wedding activities!A day out with cousins. They don't look much like cousins do they?
These were taken from Kaylyns first smile. And Here Grandma shows off Kaylyn after her very first bath.
Grandma K thinks that a blanket is a long distance hug. So each baby has their 'hug' blanket from grandma K.
Grandma, Kaylyn, and Aunt Dot
My baby Kaylyn had a rough first week.
Trudy, the bride, was my best friend in high school. I was suppose to shoot her wedding for her. I was put on bed rest just weeks before her choosen date. I was so disappointed, but I couldn't miss it either. So these were taken from my seat with my feet up. She is beautiful.
These are not the cutest pictures of my kids because their hair is a mess. But I loves these pictures because they are well taken--and these are my kids. Their hair never stayed nice--until we cut it!!
Karla's first day of preschool.
I took these pictures at the Nef family reunion.
