practice makes perfect

Today was just one of those days.  I really didn't get very much accomplished and the things I did accomplish didn't work out how I expected them to.  Travis and I wanted to go down by the pier after he got off work to take a few pictures.   When we were about to leave, I realized I didn't charge the camera battery.  So, we charged it for about 15 minutes hoping to get enough of a charge to last.  By the time we got to the pier we only had about 15 minutes of good lighting.   

We still got a few good shots, but I was trying to work on a few things before my first photo shoot that is coming up in a couple of weeks.  I am really excited to be taking a few pictures of some of our friends from church.  However, I feel like I need to nail down a few things before I actually get someone (besides my family) in front of my camera.  I would hate to have them get ready for pictures, meet me somewhere, and then have nothing to show for it.  So, although we are practicing, we are definitely not perfect.  Here is what I have to show for today.

These are a few of the pictures Travis took.
