Quince meets camera



So a few weeks ago I wanted to do some more photos of my daughter. It was fun and she is such a girly girl. She found my an older camera I use to use. Its a film, Minolta, camera. I used this when I first started until 2009.
Quincie is looking at it. I'm just shooting away at her. I say to her, "Quincie turn the lens. You will be able to see me."
"Wow!" she says.
I show her how to wind it and just adjust the lens so she can see me. She thinks its so neat. Which makes my heart melt. When we were done, she asks. "Where can I see the pictures?"
I laugh, "This is an older camera, It dot digital. It is suppose to have film in it and then you wind it up and get it developed."
"Well, that was a waste of time!"
There was no film in it. I told her I would get her a little camera for her birthday if she was a good girl! :) She is excited and still wanted to use the old camera.
Just so cute to see my daughter looking and adjusting my old camera. I took that camera everywhere with me. It was like my little baby.
Just wanted to share with others what I thought was such a neat thing. Enjoy!

5 yrs Wedding Photography


So I am getting more emails about Weddings. Price. Bookings. I was thinking to myself, "How long have I been doing this?"
 Wow 5 years, this year. I started in 2008. The first wedding I did was for a friend. Its funny but she asked me to do them, and I never considered wedding photography. Not at that time. Its a big step. A big job. I was only taking Senior, Family, Children, and landscape. This was all taking with film until 2008! Which I did end up getting a Nikon DSLR Camera. But I didn't want to take a risk with a Wedding using my Minolta Film camera.  She asked me how much I would charge. Umm, NOTHING! ;) First off, my husband (bf at the time) was IN the Wedding. Second, I have never shot a Wedding before. 3rd, I have never shot a wedding before....
I definitely would never take any money from anyone shooting my first wedding (for me). I did it, and had fun. It was just so exciting to capture such an amazing milestone in a persons life. She love the photos. I had many people ask me that year.





More about me
So rewind, I have been taking Portraits and landscapes and just everything and anything in 2002. It started in my 11th grade Photography Class with Mrs Smith!! Then I did it again in 12th. When I graduated I just still continued taking photographs. Everything and anything. (best way to learn) I took some senior photos for friends that year in 2002. Then word of mouth...love that kind of talk, spreads so fast. I don't think I really stopped taking photos. When I worked full time after I graduated. I had coworkers ask me to take photos. I wanted to do it for a living. But never really thought of it. I just did it for extra money. I did check out Photography Schools in Rockport and Portland. But I just couldn't afford it. Rockport was outta my $$$ range. I do wish I went to Portland when I was younger. That would have been great knowledge and experience.
But I think of the people I have worked with in the past. They are the best and I am so grateful to get the experience from each one of them. I would not trade that, for the world. I would have missed all of the people I have met and shot if I did go. So I am grateful.

I became a business in 2010. Which now I am learning so much stuff in the Business area. Headache sometimes.  Business part of it takes alot of your time.
I think photography and about Lisa Lynn Photos from when I wake up to when I go to bed. {My kids are first of course. I am lucky to be home with them.}I usually have a note book near me. Just in case of an idea.
I am in the process of working on my studio. Cleaning it is the first step. I am super excited about! I have a blog about that. Read!
"Love my job!" I say this alot. I am very proud of what I have become and what I will learn and do in the future!
I always think of this quote below whenever I get in a funk.
"Just keep swimming, Just keep swimming." -Finding Nemo
Oh yes, I did just quote Finding Nemo.

Thank you for reading!
