Yay!

Phew! Huge relief! Due to my awesome instructor making sure everything worked out for me for this work experience week, I will be going home! I leave Saturday morning because she has a president's ball photobooth at the Crystal Center, so I get to help her with that on Saturday evening! So happy everything worked out! :D

Another disappointing day...

So next week I was planning on going to GP for work experience for the whole week and I was REALLY looking forward to it, but then I got an email from my instructor this morning telling me that the person I was going to do work experience with is going into back surgery this coming week so I won't be able to do work experience with her. This means I most likely won't be going to GP next week at all unless I can find someone today or tomorrow to take me on. *sigh* Whatever the circumstances, I hope she has a safe and successful back surgery.

Funny funny!

There's this website called www.yearbookyourself.com. Marlys and Terry showed it to me. You put your picture in and it takes yearbook photos from from over the years and puts your face into them, SO hilarious! Here are a few of myself!


I almost look exactly like my mom in this one hahah!

And here's my favorite of Marlys:And of Terry:

1st wedding ever!

Yesterday I figured out that if I get booked to photograph weddings every saturday for a month, I'm giong to be exhausted for an entire month. I had the priveledge of helping out a classmate yesterday shoot a wedding he had booked quite awhile back. His regular second shooter accidentaly double booked himself and was unable to help out this weekend, so my classmate asked me to help. I was a little wary at first, but I realized that I really need to start getting the experience if I'm ever going to do weddings for a living so I figured it would be better to do one now while working with someone experienced rather than try to figure it out on my own. It was actually really really fun! It was stressful of course because you have to make sure you catch all the key shots because they won't happen again. Anyways, I'll have to upload a few of my shots to show you guys. I think some of them turned out really well, especially for it being my first wedding ever. He actually asked if I would be interested in helping him out with future weddings, even after I move back to GP, and he'd pay the travel. Pretty sweet deal! I'm also going to get the chance to do work experience for a week with a lady in GP at the end of October. I'm looking forward to that. She actually graduated from NAIT awhile back, so it'll be interesting to shadow underneath her for awhile.

Family Pictures

We went down to Medicine Hat this past weekend for both Terry's 25th birthday party and Evan's baby dedication. While we were down there Mar wanted me to take their family pictures for them. Here are a few!Needless to say, Terry is a huge Oiler's fan :) Mom also wanted me to get a new picture of Kyle for the wall. The most recent picture of him was from when he was in grade 11, 6 years ago. Kyle is a goof, and hates posing for photos, so this is my favorite from the whole session...

It's official!

I now have a logo for my business when it begins! Thanks to Mr. Kennedy for the name idea. I love it :)
