We're having some fun now!It's that time of year again, when I get out my photography equipment and start taking all the family portraits. So, this year I asked Melissa if she wouldn't mind me setting it all up in her bonus room and leaving it set up for a few weeks. My main problem has been not having a place to do that. Melissa was very excited to have it there so we could really have some fun! This way I can get in the practice I sorely need.
So, we lugged it all over their on Saturday and spent an hour setting things up. Greg was gracious enough to be my model while I did all that. Unfortunately, when we looked at the photos on the computer, I was appalled at what I was seeing. So, we spent another hour taking them with all kinds of settings until I determined there was something seriously wrong with my camera. Melissa drove me to Idaho Camera on Orchard in Boise where I was promptly told there was something wrong and it would be somewhere in the neighborhood of $300 to repair!
Don't you know I have had my eye on the new Pentax K10D for about a year?So, the decision was already made. We headed back to the "studio" with new camera in hand and proceeded to take several hundred really fun photos. The kids and grandkids all got in the mood and we had a blast! I cannot show you all the photos yet, as they are family photos for various projects, but you will love them when you see them!
The photo studio is open for several weekends, if anyone would like to help me practice, just let me know!Thank you, for your support!

Soooo excited for you and hope you can squeeze me and Bob in before we leave town.
Oh my gosh, it was so much fun. I was a bit bummed that unfortunately Greg was feeling punky and could not finish out the rest of the photo session. I appreciate his effort! I can't wait to have my family photo done!
Oooh Oooh pick me!
Anytime, Sarah!
That sure was a lot of fun momma, can't wait to get our family photos taken too.
