    If you consider it photography? I guess?

    Here are a few of mine, most of my work is of families, teenagers, maternity, kids, babies, food, stuff like that but I am hoping to get my own studio one day and focus on empowering other women.

    I want to be a photographer, I love photography and I've taken a few good shots in my time but I signed up for a course and it was way too technical, I need someone to shows me in person 😆

    grab a DSLR, set it on manual mode, and play around with the settings. I learned everything hands on, and used " photography on the net " when I got stuck.

    THIS!!! I have not ever followed a tutorial, I love just playing with my camera. I use a Nikon D5000, I'm a Nikon fan. I've used Canon's before that were not mine, I did a photo shoot with someone else's camera because mine had gotten stolen, this was back in 2015, I finally got another camera last year. The one I did with the canon, are so not as good as I can do with a Nikon, but I think it's because I didn't have a lot of time to play with it. They liked the pictures, so I guess that's all that matters. It was a fun shoot, probably one of my favorite as in fun goes, it was an all woman pinup shoot.

    I love playing with my editing software as well. Mostly the color effects. Here are a few I played with the other day around the house.

    I do not remember the name of the Canon I shot from, I am sure it was one of the rebels. I really think her shutter was on the fence of not working properly. Or I just needed more practice. I had to downgrade do a D3400 because at the time I was so desperate to get a good camera back, this is all they had and I didn't want to order and wait on it. So I went to best buy and bought it. I love it, but I wish I would have waited and ordered one, either a D5000 or higher. My husband is talking about upgrading me soon. Possibly 2020.

    if I were to upgrade now, I would go mirrorless, assuming you do not have a lot of equipment invested. I think sony is the best in the market right now with mirrorless: half the weight of DSLR's with superior picture quality, only thing it lacks is battery life

    but we all know, at the end of the day, no matter the camera u get, its all about the lens.

    just make sure u get something fullframe, which I believe what a D5000 is

    YES! I miss my D5000, I thought I still had the lens, but the thief stole that lens too. I had a TON of equipment, I was just left with my Nikon bag, cheap tripod, and my 18-55mm, now I have 2 of those lol. I might really love my camera more if I got most the stuff that was stolen back. More lenses, flash, my lighting tools. URG! That was my life line, sucks when you invest and some *kitten* has to come in and ruin it.

    since I only shoot for pleasure ( lol ) im resisting on getting the 70-200 2.8L. that thing is so expensive but is my holy grail. 18-55 only? eeep. start stocking up. that's such a horrible kit lens :d

    Totally agree :(
