Photo Shoot #2 -- This handsome couple was made for pictures! He wasn't quite as enthusiastic as she was about having pictures taken, but you'd never know it...

The M & M Shoot -- The Kids
I got the chance to photograph this great family for my second official photo shoot. The kids were a little timid at first, but I thought these turned out quite well. What do you think?
Rubindo the Magnificent!
Shortly after I got my new Nikon D90, Rubindo's family requested that I take some family pictures for them. I was flattered! We spent an hour in the park near Ford Lake and I was pretty pleased with the results.
Here are a few of the highlights from my first official photo shoot. The weather was beautiful for early October in Michigan. It was so warm, in fact, that the mosquitoes were making a resurgent effort to feast upon any and all warm blooded creatures they could find before the cold weather of Autumn really arrived.
Rubindo and his hermanitos were mischievous, as always, but cooperative.
Hey, at least three of them were looking at the camera for this candid shot...

The Photography Blog Begins
This blog will be dedicated to my photography hobby. I have been meaning to start a separate public site that I can use to showcase some of my work, and this is it.
In the past few weeks I have actually started taking a few pictures for other people! It has been a lot of fun shooting family portraits for a few friends and it has me thinking I might want to start a small photography business to, you know, support my hobby. For now I'll be working on the barter system. If I have some luck, I may eventually start selling some of my work.
I intend to share some highlights from my portrait shoots as well as some photography that I just plain find interesting.
I am anxious to learn more, so please, share your thoughts and comments with me. I am open to learning what you like about my photography and what you think could be done to improve it. That's what the comment section is for so please feel free to use it!
I'm planning to keep this blog public, so I won't be sharing much personal information here. That's what my other blog is for, and its limited to people I know a little better. If you know me and you want access to the family site please send me a note and we'll see what can be done.
