Still learning, still growing, pressing on…

Kenny took me to the Ohio Professional Photographer’s of Ohio trade show in Sandusky this weekend. I learned more neat photography things. My photography instructor from Lakeland Community College encouraged the class to attend this convention and I am sure glad he did! My instructor, Ron Kotar, has a very nice studio in Mentor called “Studio K Photography”. He has many years experience and is willing to teach others. He does beautiful work.

I met one professional photographer today that stands out to me above anyone else I have met. Her name is Jessica Vogel and she has been a professional photographer for many years. She started out in a little humble garage studio and has built a business and reputation among professional photographers that is outstanding! She encouraged me to persue my dream of building a photography business. I have learned a lot the past couple of years by taking several photography classes and I know I will continue to learn daily.

Its a start.

I am really enjoying all of my photography classes at college! In commercial photography we are working on photographing shiny metal objects without getting dark reflections in the photo. In panoramic we have several assignments to work on, including outside architecture, inside architecture, social functions and more!. This week in Portrat photography we are working on one light sets. For now I will be limited to one strobe, but in time I will get more. 🙂

Gosh I LOVE photography!
