This is EXACTLY what I do with my photography! I don't advertise, its all word of mouth, I turn away jobs I don't wanna deal with, I schedule things when its good for me, etc. But I'm not out to make a full time living off of photography. I have a full time job already...MOM. So that definitely helps. I've pretty much been off for the winter. But I took this time to learn, learn, learn. I swear I've learned more over this past winter than I did all last year! I think I'm just burned out from taking it all in. Haha! Time for a break before spring hits!

Haha! I couldn't help it! Watcha gonna do? It was a good deal! On a side note, I am soooo stinking excited. Yaaayyy! I'm sure when that camera gets here I'm not gonna want to put it down! Until then, I'll take it easy.

Thanks everyone for all you input! I really like the notebook idea too. There are so many times I see a little place driving down the street, or I think of something I want to try and then forget later. I think I should get a little notebook for jotting down random photography stuff in. Great idea!
