Back to the basics

I'm not even half-way through and I'm already making changes. My eyes have been glued to Exposed for an hour each night and I  just can't get enough. Exposed is Jasmine Star's first ever magazine. And it's awesome. She details her journey to success and gives out pointers on each page. It's like an all access pass to her diary - but with main focus on her business.

Because of what I've read so far, I am now reading my camera manual (again). But this time, I'm going to go through it real slow. And- I'll stop and research something I don't understand and then I will practice it!

I'm also working on getting to know more photographers! It's such a blessing to be able to be friends with your "competitors". We share things, help each other, and have fun together. Who could ask for more?!
I've been lucky enough to find someone that lets me second shoot with her and we help each other out on sessions. She even let me use her AMAZING camera (the one I want) on one of my recent sessions! You should've seen me floundering around - "where the heck is the exposure compensation button? how do I change the ISO? GRR" all while shooting in a new location! To say the least, it was FUN!

So- I don't have much to say other than:
I am working hard to know my camera like the back of my hand and use light to my advantage, no matter where I'm at :)

As always, visit me on the web and don't hesitate to give me feedback.

Casting Call & recent Child Sessions

Hi there!

If you are not already aware, Jacqueline Lusby Photography is offering some killer deals at this moment!
I have decided to waive the session fee while I build up my portfolio and a Casting Call has been issued.

I need the following types of sessions:
 -Families (preferably with at least one young child)
 -Couples (engaged or just in love)
 -Children (twins, sisters, brothers, solo)
-Newborns (boys and girls)
-Seniors (graduating class of 2012 or college graduates)

 If eligible, your Session Fee will be waived (that's a $100 value!). Prints and products, including digital images, may be purchased at additional (but discounted) costs. If you would like my pricing information (for prints, packages, products, digital files), just email me!

I've had the pleasure of photographing some children from the family of one of my BEST supporters!! (Thanks Danielle) Here are the highlights of those recent sessions:

Bailey is the epitomy of precious. She was such a trooper though it was rainy and windy the morning of her shoot. We had a great tea party and she modeled her new outfit for me :) Enjoy this precious 2 year old!

I also had the pleasure of photographing two handsome boys that belong to an old middle school friend! My how small the world is! Here are some highlights of Cameron (5 yr)  & Zachary (2 yr) at Common Grounds Park in Lakeland!

My next blog post will feature two lovely family sessions! The Villagomez Family and Sabrina's family! Stay tuned!

With love,
