The photo shoot was a success! Did everything go perfect? No, but that’s not something I ever expect. Last minute I had to rent a lighting kit and go out to Boston (thanks to my husband who is bringing it back for me today). I had to learn the lighting and figure out how I needed it to work for me. The plan was to start around 7pm and we didn’t start until more like 8:30. I was uneasy at first, not knowing how to direct anyone but after I got into each photo shoot I think it got easier.

Also I didn’t bring enough backup space so I was basically taking more pictures than I had room and I worried about my battery running out, but it didn’t. The shoot went until about midnight and I think I was run down or something because when I got home I had these chills.

But, despite all of that, which isn’t much anyway, it went amazing. I took about 1,000 pictures and at this point after editing I am down to about 700. I learned a lot and pictures are to come. A big thanks from me to everyone who has helped me get as far as I’ve already come.

My next photo shoot goal is to do an outside one, also I would love to shoot a family. Sorry, I can’t help but get a kick out of the word shoot
