Holtz Family

I decided to do my first photo session with my best friend, Liz, and her great family. I have known Liz for about four years, and she is one of the best ladies I know. She has helped me a lot through this new learning process, so who better to photograph first? I am still working on learning how to be assertive in telling people how to pose, where to stand, etc. but I'm getting there! I also used a telephoto lense for the first time this shoot. I learned what to (and not to!) do when using a lense of that size, and it helped me start my process of deciding what the next lense I buy will be.
I've been amazed so far at not only how fun this is, but how challenging it can be. The photographs themselves are not hard to get... But, when you have an older laptop that has tons of programs on it, it's a bit hard to upload and edit anything! I guess Adam and I's next adventure is in buying a new computer that will allow me to do the things I'd like with my pictures without taking four hours to upload them :/
While I search for what computers I like, enjoy my five favorite shots from yesterdays session!
