So, I might be a baby boomer, but I decided it’s never too late to have a new career, right? Remember back awhile ago when I talked about starting up a portrait photography business? I even shared some shots from a photo shoot I went on with some other local photographers.
Now I first learned on a film SLR camera right after college…so it’s been a long time. But I never really, really took off with it until I bought a digital SLR a few years ago. I do love photographing almost everything I see…as evidenced by the variety on this blog. But I’ve found that I truly enjoy photographing people.
So, resolutely putting aside my age…I decided to purse a new career. Portrait Photography. I’ve been busy setting up all the legal side of it. Licensing & registering with the state. Setting up sales tax stuff. Getting insurance. Building up my portfolio. Figuring out pricing, contracts, model releases, Etc, etc.
So, now is the time where you chime in and say it’s never too late to start a new career, okay? I could use a bit of support here!
I, of course, will let you know when I go live. But in the mean time…look at this…
My first junk mail addressed to my new company! :toofunny:
I guess I’m almost official, huh?? 😉

And as the seasons come and go, here’s something you might like to know.
There are fairies everywhere: under bushes, in the air,
playing games just like you play, singing through their busy day.
So listen, touch, and look around – in the air and on the ground.
And if you watch all nature’s things, you might just see a fairy’s wing.

plus the exciting announcement of May’s theme!!
The winner of April’s Photo of the Month was Tug, with her gorgeous flower!
Tug ~ Painting
Congrats, Tug. This was a wonderful photo!
Which leads me to our second place photo. Katie L’s wonderful black and white flower. Really it’s gorgeous. So much so that I’ve decided that May’s Photo of the Month Contest is Black and White Photos! I do so love black and white photos! Remember last year when we had the black and white challenge? I had a whole series of black and white photos of the boys here. Katie, if you haven’t seen them, you should look at them! They are all grown up…if males ever grow up. 🙄
Katie ~ Black and White Blooms
Of course, Katie has already had such a lovely black and white photo…now she’ll have to try and outdo herself! I’ll post again towards the end of the month and you can send me your links to your photos then. But for now…go out and take some wonderful photos and convert them to black and white!
