I'm back again...

Haha, ok, so I'm not keeping up with this thing very well...it's not like I have a lot to write about anyway!!!
I'm still working at the good ole bank. I didn't get the job with the photography studio. BUT, thats ok! It was a life changing experience. When I went to my second interview with the woman, it was to show me the little studio and the basics of operating the thing. Then, she proceeds to SHOW ME how to make the kids laugh!!!! WHAT?! They have set ways of making the children laugh. You can't just get your kid in their pose, and then make funny faces or anything. You have to use their method. I was appalled! I thought it would be a fun little job, but no, after that interview, I was praying she didn't call me back to offer me the job, because I wouldn't have taken it. I don't want to be told how to make the kids laugh. I want to be able to do it my own way. SO, this made me realize, I am more than ready to be in charge of myself and start my own photography business. Thus, I am in the process of creating, what I hope will be "Mirrored Reflections Photography" specializing in children. I have a new professional digital camera, laptop, and other materials already. I have done a photo shoot with all the nieces and nephews to get some proofs and see what I am capable of doing. It went well! I already have a friend who wants me to shoot her wedding and a couple other little shoots people have hit me up for! So, it's not even up and running as of yet, but I already have jobs! I take this as a good sign. (Hopefully)
School starts back up next week. oh yay! Actually, I am excited. I think it will be a very interesting semester.
Ryan moved to Denton yesterday. We went up and ate dinner with everyone. It's strange having him up here and going to UNT. But it's cool!
I guess that's it for now. Brandon is still working working...He goes on a business trip the 2nd week in September (I will be lonely....haha not. I will enjoy the peace! ;o)...) and then when he gets back, he is going to try to get a second job in the evenings.
So, until next time......
