Photo shoot Marathon Sneak Peek

WOW! MY FIRST PHOTO SHOOT EVER WITH REAL PEOPLE AND A REAL CAMERA!

Today I’m extremely happy and exhausted! I’ve been taking pictures non-stop since Friday afternoon. In case you don’t know I rented a Canon EOS 5D Mark II and I received it on Thursday. I had scheduled my first photo session for Friday at noon right after work and when I grabbed the camera I swear I had a panic attack. There were like two million abbreviations around the body of my new rental and little tiny buttons that I still don’t know what the hell they’re for. My husband was cracking up looking at me almost in tears thinking of the people I already had committed to and not knowing if I was going to be able to deliver a good job. I still don’t know if I did, hahaha. Anyway, I took the manual and started reading: focus, aperture, shutter speed, f-stop, and blah, blah, blah. What the heck? Well, the aperture and shutter speed I’ve kind of got but I’m seriously thinking about taking some classes besides my coming workshops because this is something else, no really! My models were all friends of mine and I swear they rocked my world up side down. Seriously? Nobody complaint at all about my incompetency and my slow speed. And they all look so GORGEOUS in the pictures, I swear I can’t stop looking at them. Danielle, Amalia, Lina, Jaime Andres, Marjorie, Lucia, Andreina, Jimmy and the beautiful Isabella: THANK YOU SO MUCH. I can’t tell you enough how grateful I am to all of you and how much this helped me to learn and practice. After this experience I decided that definitely there’s nothing else in this world I rather do or be than a lifestyle and wedding photographer. It was so much fun and now that I see the pictures I feel so incredibly happy. For those of you with experience in this photography world please BE NICE this was my first photo shoot EVER, I know now that grabbing a professional camera it’s not all it takes to take great pictures but hey I’m trying. I know they are not all that and I can only promise to keep trying my best, keep learning from every single session and do better every time. I do like them though and I think my friends are so beautiful and so real… I LOVE YOU GUYS! By the way, this is just a sneak peek, I’m planning to upload one post per each session I had so you can see more…
