successful start YAY!!

[imik]

Well my photography business I just started is doing great which feels weird to say! I've shot a wedding, child portraits, and now a band's performance at a local music club! Feels good to get paid for doing something i LOVE almost like I'm cheating somehow ha ha




took a break from work photos and took some of my kitty, Scooter

this is the bottom of a decorative wind chime that i unfocused on purpose.. i thought it looked cooler this way


Hope all my fellow DPSers have been well

Hi Kimi, I'm soooo jealous! (Which is terrible feedback, BTW). My son is in a band that just debuted their 2nd CD at the Viper Room in Hollywood. I wanted to be there to photograph them so badly but, alas, had to work. Your photos keep the dream to photograph a concert alive. I'd appreciate any hints as these are just terrific! Your kitty has a twin sleeping three feet away from my feet. Cute photo. Love the last! Out of focus was a great choice!

Awesome on both counts, grabbing great pics and getting paid for it too!

Darn, that 2nd one is really cool.

Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations Kimi! I'm so happy for you. It would be wonderful to be able to make a little of my investment back. l.o.l It would take a few Really goood jobs fot that to happen.
I like the band pictures, you handled the lighting really well. Keep up the good work
Thanks for sharing these

Wow Lindy that is too cool! What is the name of your son's band? (hint)--- i went to DPS, Digital Photography Technique, then Tutorials and then "How to shoot live concerts/gigs" posted by Digmo... THANK YOU DIGMO haha his post really saved me because i had no idea what settings to use.

Ha ha thanks Mike! I'm so glad to get positive feedback on the band shots, because i felt like they were really decent but i wasn't sure because i've never done it before.


Thanks you guys
Kimi

Wow Kimi, I am stoked you got it going. Nice job on these, I particularly like the last one. Nice soft focus.... I don't know why, but I'm really enamored with it.
