So my 30th birthday was this past Sunday, March 12. Through the crazy timing of fate, one of my favorite bands happened to be coming through Kansas City on that exact date, so that’s how I celebrated! We set up a birthday party and show at Llywelyn’s Pub in Overland Park, KS, and with Wyland playing, it was amazing!
So, I’ve decided to step into a new arena within the photography realm: pet photography. The first pictures I took with my camera were of my pets. I just love the little buggers so much! Truthfully, I love animals tremendously. Ask any of my family or friends about me, and it’ll be guaranteed to come up. So to get back into photography more, I’m going to refocus and look to the animals I love, through a lens. My first order of business was to volunteer to help a local pet rescue by taking pictures of their adoptable pets for their website. I’ve read many articles that discuss the important role a good picture can play in the adoption of an animal, so I am volunteering my time and camera this Saturday to New Beginnings Dog Rescue. They’ll be having an adoption event at the Olathe Petsmart at 119th and Strang Line, so stop by, say hi, and maybe go home with a new family member!
So, hello again! It’s been a little while since I’ve posted anything. Since my last photography session, I’ve started a car lot, sold my house, moved, supported my husband through a stressful promotion, and taken a week-long vacation. Phew! I wanted to jump back into my blog, though, and start getting active again, so I wanted to share what I’ve learned so far. Continue reading
I’m so excited to be able to present the first post in my new “day in the life” style series titled I know what you did last concert! (hubby suggested it as a joke, and I just loved it!). This series will aim to follow various bands on a concert day to give some insight into what it’s like to be a performing band behind-the-scenes. So now that you have the basics of the series, let me introduce the first band! Continue reading
I’m so excited to have finally shot a concert with my Canon! This concert was a lot of firsts for me: first press pass, first time backstage, first concert shot with my camera, first time I worked directly with a band, and first for the series shoot I really wanted to try! Overall, it was a wonderful experience. 🙂 This concert was with Kongos
So, I’m finally getting around to editing some pictures I took of the Vampire Diaries
The recordBar has quickly become my favorite venue for concerts! I love being close to the stage and meeting the musicians after their performances. Luckily, I got to see another amazing show there on March 28 when SomeKindaWonderful
