Can’t be perfect

How often I hear those words from Eric… that life isn’t perfect and he isn’t perfect and I certainly can’t be perfect. Today those words rang true again, as we reviewed photos from my first “real” photo shoot… that is, with a subject other than deer! I had the privilege of taking pictures for Riana, a friend and super talented violinist from church, with huge opportunities awaiting her… I can feel it!  She also happens to be incredibly beautiful – inside and out – and SOOO photogenic!  Here is proof. I’ll post more pictures later, but this short update is dedicated to my 2 faithful blog readers: mom & dad.  I love you!  And Riana, thank you for your confidence in me… we had lots of fun. : )  Can’t wait to do it again!!


Back to the title, it turns out that my ISO settings were off, so many of the shots that looked perfect on the camera’s tiny screen actually came out blurry on the big computer screen. Argh!!  We did get a handful of good, clear shots, but I was still a little disappointed. You can’t be perfect the first time, Jen, but we can keep practicing.  Thank God for learning experiences and an amazing coach (who also cooked dinner tonight and is now washing the dishes – I’m such a TERRIBLE wife!!).
