During the day I work at a local newspaper in classified advertising and during nights and weekends I am an aspiring photographer, even though lately I have been too busy to really take pictures like I want to. It brings to my attention how far away I am from my goal of running my own studio. Hopefully now that I am settled in my new marriage and house, I will be able to concentrate on photography. I have never had any formal photo training, just what I have taught myself and what I have learned from other photographers. I do have a degree in graphic design which is another hobby of mine.
