I recently got a DSLR camera. I've always loved photography. Sometimes my students ask me what I would have been if I wasn't a teacher...and I usually mention photography. After Christmas I got a f/1.8 lens...this lens has a lower f-stop, which means it's a high aperture lens, which means it lets in way more light than a normal lens, which means it has a smaller depth of field, which means it will focus on an object and the background becomes blurry, which means really nice portrait shots. Was that confusing? I try to only shoot in manual mode. I've been practicing my hobby of doing portrait shots and here are some samples of what I've done...

| This is Sam & Emily. They were my first "photoshoot"! |
 |
| Tyler and Melissa. I love this pose!!! |
 |
| My mom and dad. I couldn't believe how natural they were in front of the camera. |
 |
| This was taken with a wireless remote and a tripod! |
 |
| Well....Rollin wanted a model pic. I think this one's pretty good! |
 |
| Another wireless remote and tripod. |
Almost all of these pictures were taken in Lemontree park. I have found my secret spots that have AMAZING backdrops for photos.
