So I havent posted in a few days because things have been so crazy. On wednesday the 1st I shot Mindy's wedding and it was quite an experience to say the least. If nothing else it further cemented in my mind that I need better equipment and as always more education (which I don't think you can ever have to much of). I think the pictures came out ok, they are just going to take me a bit of time to correct. I will post some of my favorites from the wedding when I am done fixing them.

Thursday was quite painful for me. I have learned that I am about 6 inches to tall to stand straight up to take normal photos. This means that I have to "take a knee" to get the straight on angle I am looking for, which is all fine and great except for the fact that I am out of shape and haven't worked the muscles that it requires to do this in quite some time. Because of working these muscles so much I have been sore for the past couple of days. Here is a picture of what I am talking about. Has anyone else experienced this? Let me know, I would be interested to hear others experiences.





On Friday I purchased a lawn mower off of KSL before thoroughly checking it out. I mowed My father in laws lawn with it and learned that it was not worth the money I paid for it and I am hoping that the guy is going to give me my money back tomorrow when I go to see him. I also ordered my glasses and am very excited for them to come, I'll post pictures when I finally get them.

Saturday we went to The BEE's game with the McReynolds clan and had a lot of fun. The fireworks were awesome and the game was actually good to. I wish now that I had taken my camera with me, I am seeing this more and more that I need to start taking it places with me, I think I am losing out on some really great pictures due to my laziness.

So I made a decision today that because of my experiences at the wedding and seeing the picture of myself at the event that I am going to go on a diet starting tomorrow. I have not felt good about myself in a while and I am not happy with the way that I look so I have decided to go on a diet and start working out. Mallory is going to help me which I think is going to be awesome because I definitely need that help and the push to go to the gym. I am going to try and cut down to 1,000 calories and work out 5 days a week. I will keep you posted on how this works out for me and my progress with it.

In the future I am going to try and post every day. This is very therapeutic for me and I like looking back to see how I felt and what I thought. I have always loved literature and writing and have always wanted to write so I figure that this will also help me with that and help me get some good experience in expanding my vocabulary and working on my lyrical flow.

Sorry for such a long post I will try and keep them short and to the point in the future, or at least less rambling.
