Turning point

So I think I will try and talk to some of my kids about doing their senior photos. It will at least give me some work to do and keep me on my toes as I try and do portraits on location somewhere, oh and learn how to light more on location.

So this weekend had a chance to head up north for a church retreat with the youth group. Didn't get many chances to take pics but I did get a couple. I'll try and get some posted up on here...


yay fall colors

I set this shot up using a wooden bench and just letting the shutter go while it was on f4, AV mode.
found a nearby building with tons of hand prints

found this spot right at the end, before we left on the bus to head back to phx. strobed with my 420ex flash with omnibounce diffuser triggered with the ST-E2.


Anyways, still job searching for something with full time hours. Found a new site, snagajob.com. applied for several jobs on there and so far nothing yet. Also found phoenixteachingfellows.org with info about teaching and also getting my masters in edu.

Still been pondering what else to do with my life. I have thoughts of going through the EMT training and certification. Lifeguarding was fun and I kinda want to continue the training and extend it by becoming an emt. Or also, since cancer has started appearing more and more in friends and family, I want to try and go back to school to see my way into cancer research. This cancer thing has to stop affecting the ones that I love. I'm lucky enough to still have my mom around...wish I could say the same about other friends parents.

So, life is full of unsuspecting surprises. I hope I get some good surprises soon.
