Fairly new to photograpy having picked it up as a way to add new services to our Beauty Salon doing Holiday Pics, Portrait parties Glamour shots etc..and have quickly realized how rewarding it is to capture and present a moment in time that the parents will cherish forever.

I may not be a able to give up my day job "Computer/IT guy" anytime soon but have really found this as something I get a great sense of accomplishemnt from.

YOu can see what I am up to at www.mvlips.com and www.mvlips.com/blog

I have 2 fairly grown childrenn 14 and 18 year olds and I find I have so much more patientce for the little ones now and really cherish the interactions I am privelidged to experience, capture and share

I am currently in the PB'ing stages of this endeavor and am really hoping to take this to the next level doing what I really love and make money doing it.

Currently I am struggling with finding a style, I love the capture but I also enjoy the manipulation after getting that B&W conversion to look just right or process a picture in a way that makes it unique.but I realize after a couple presentations I need to minimize the different types of styles I present.
