So, my name is Bryone (pronounced "Brian"...yeah, dont ask) and I am from Texas. I have been interested in photography since highschool (in my 30's now), but I never knew where to begin.
Three years ago, I borrowed a Canon 350D (RebelXT) from a friend when my daughter was born, and I've been hooked ever since. I mostly shoot for love, but I've earned a little here and there to "feed the need."
(I'm that guy your friend tells you about when you ask if they know anyone who can "shoot my wedding"... eh... it buys the toys, you know?

)
I currently shoot a Canon 400D and mostly rock my new favorite lens, the EF 50mm F1.8.
I've been reading and learning from this site for about a year and I finally decided to join up.
