Building a dream day by day.

Hello everyone .Fall is in the air and I love it.  I have been so busy getting things put together for my new studio. I am so pumped. I will be posting pictures soon. So many things that have to all come together . I always wondered why the heck photographers charged so much for there services. After all it takes them 30 minutes to take a few shots and there done. Easy money right.. holy cow far from it. I can not even begin to explain how expensive it is to get just a few things to get started. Then there is all the permits, camera equipment, props, backdrops.. which by the way cost your left leg and some blood to. Then there is the this idea that people have..that I had.... that all photographers do is take pictures. And bam. They just made X amount of dollars in 30 minutes. Oh so not true.  There is the drive time if on location, there is setup, there is cleanup, there is the pictures themselves, and then... editing. You can never imagine how much time photographers spend post production.Some spend entire days proofing pictures and getting them ready to showcase online. So when all is said and done we as photographers probley make 5 dollars an hour. LOL. Sign me up baby.. because I would do this job for free if I didnt actually have to feed a family . I love what I do soooo much. Stay tuned for updates with my new studio pics.  And if your looking for christmas portraits.. I got backdrops on the way. And a cozy studio.
