Finally took some pictures!

I'm excited. Yesterday was absolutely beautiful here, it actually hit 19 degrees. So I took advantage of the gorgeous sunny day and took some fall pictures. Little Miss L wasn't having any of it, Miss E was willing for a change although she had some ideas of her own about how she wanted to pose so finally, I turned the camera onto Mr Hersh.....the big brown beast in my life. He too, was a bit unwilling to sit and look at me.....and if I got closer to him, he would turn his head to the side. It was funny but frustrating. Anyway, I have no room left on my hard drive to add new pictures, so I'm trying to weed through the images that I do have on there to make more room. In my endeavors, I accidently deleted some pictures that I had taken the summer from Bowring Park before I actually burnt the disk so now I'm frantically trying to find software that can *hopefully* recover the images before it's too late. I did find one program but of course, I needed to buy the full version for it to recover the files, so I'm googling other programs for ones that will work. I should get some new images up in the next day or two........if I'm lucky.

Seriously neglecting

I really shouldn't be surprised that I haven't been keeping up. I've has pretty much all my shoots fall through. And I didn't get paid for any of them. Oh well, lesson learned. I'm done with doing freebies for people. I've slowly started to advertise. I've got a couple of calendars and some business cards at Campbell Rentals. I still haven't got my flyers put out yet. I keep forgetting to do that. The weather has been amazing. Today it's 18 degrees and sunny. I'm going to be outside to take some pics when Emily gets home. I haven't taken up my camera in so long, I don't remember the last time and I'm losing my drive for it, so I need to get back in the saddle. In the meantime, here's Miss E.

Oh me, oh my!

Good heavens, I can't believe it's been a month since my last post and I haven't done a thing in that time. I have taken some pictures of Laura but they haven't been the best. She's not the most cooperative subject. I wonder where she gets her stubornness from! The family shoot that was scheduled for the beginning of the month never happened. I messaged the girl but she hasn't gotten back to me. I'm so very disappointed. I would really appreciate it if you could let me know that you won't be able to make it. I guess the good thing is that there wasn't a second date set (the first session was postponed). I really don't have a problem if you can't do it for whatever reason, just let me know. That's all that I ask. I haven't done the 5 monther that I was going to and I haven't heard from her mommy yet. And I'm also supposed to do a family shoot for them as well. Hopefully we'll get the weather to cooperate for a couple of hours for one day. That's all I need.

I do have some other ideas in mind for pictures, I'm just waiting on the people to be available. This is the one thing that I hate, I hate to wait. It drives me and I get discouraged in between, especially when people praise me up and down and then that's as far as it goes. Oh well, perhaps once it booms, I won't be able to keep a track of it all. In the meantime, here's a couple of pictures of Miss L that I took. She wasn't very pleased to be my subject, but I made her do it anyway! Haha, I'm horrible.
