So, I’m finally getting around to editing some pictures I took of the Vampire Diaries Convention back in March. It was located in Houston, TX at the Hilton, and it was quite fun! I got to actually meet one of my heroes, Ian Somerhalder!! I also met Steven Krueger, Sebastian Roche, Matt Davis, and Paul Wesley! Chase Coleman and Micah Parker were also in close proximity several times! On top of that, I even got a picture with Ian and Paul together! It was definitely a fun weekend. 🙂

So, the reason it took me so long to post these pictures is because they are the first ones I’ve taken with my actual camera, and I had to get used to the editing process. I finally made it through the selection and editing and am ready to post!

As these are my first edited photos, I’m sure there are plenty of things I’d do differently in the future, but I’ve gotta start somewhere. Some of these I’m very proud of.

These pictures were taken with my Canon EOS Rebel T5 and I used Photoshop to edit them.
