Mmm, I love BBQ. I love bbq'd beef, pulled pork and corn on the cob. Yumm, now I'm hungry
-
I think I'm more of a sweet kinda gal
-
No I don't. I haven't heard of that.

Geez Kelsey :)
Favorite lens..... hmmm. Well, it's a toss up between the 85 1.8 and 50 1.2 I love them both. But most most "used" lens is my 24-70 2.8. It's so versatile :) -
I am planning to go more low key this year. I have a few speakers I want to see but haven't committed to anything yet. I plan to see lots of friends and check out the trade show.
It's overwhelming at first. I would say just have fun :) -
That's a tough one. The glass in the 50 1.2 is amazing. The L series lenses are so awesome. Darn it, I don't have an answer to that. Can you keep both lenses and get the 35?

The best thing I did for my business so far was purchase PickPic. You can use any online shopping cart you want, but PickPic has increased my sales more than I could have imagined.
This year, the best thing has been having my husband help run the business. It's helped free me up to be able to do more photo related things instead of business related things.
( I would love to purchase ShootQ sometime in the near future though)
:) -
Hmmm, good question. I really want my clients to be comfortable and themselves. It really depends on the type of shoot I am doing too. If it's a couple then, I usually just have them interact, hold hands, laugh. It provides a great pose and perfect emotion
-
Ha!! No. I don't drink that much!!
-
Hey friend!! I am doing good! How are you? You are always on some sort of adventure :)
-
Hi, thank you!
It was taken by my friend Ma5en. He's awesome and made me look much better than I actually do! -
Hi! Thank you :)
I prefer natural light, but when the situation calls for lighting I use my 508EXII flash. I will sometimes set up an additional flash on a lightstand and trigger it using pocket wizards during the reception. -
I shoot Manual mode 98% of the time. There are a few occasions that I will turn to Aperture Priority or Shutter Priority, but that is rare
-
I am a natural light girl all the way!!

My favorite part of getting to mentor people is being able to help them get closer to their end goal. I love being able to help people achieve their goals. It's always great to hear that you helped make a difference in someone's business or life. I am a really lucky person to get to meet some of the most amazing people via the internet and in person.
-
That's a tough question, because the entire day is important. But if I could only get one shot it would be of the bride and groom at the altar after they have kissed. I love that moment because there is pure joy in their faces
-
Lots of prayer and an amazing husband that helps me :)
-
Hmm... Ok, well it happened me to
I got some new shoes and it was the first time I had worn them. We were in the church during the ceremony, I had been kneeling down shooting for a bit and decided to get up to walk around to the back of the church. Well, my feet were a little sweaty and as I was walking I was making squeaking noises. I was embarrassed and quickly started walking on my toes. I bet the last few rows in the church thought I was gassy though :) I was so embarassed.
But I know people that have split their pants so it could be worse :)
