A new beginning..

I know its been forever since I updated this blog, but I am back. A lot has changed, my son in currently in kindergarten (Ahh...where did the time go?!) I am also in school, I just finished my first year of studying Early Childhood Education at my community college. I have one more year and I will be lead teacher certified to teach preschool! I love school and I think I have finally found my calling. I have decided to come back to the blogging community and share some of the things that I am doing in school and also still share all the fun that I having with my son. Please check back soon as I will be updating and sharing. Here are a few of my favorite photos from the last couple years.

We had a awesome vacation at Disney World.

Through The Viewfinder

For Mother's Day my wonderful husband and son bought me a vintage Ansco Rediflex camera. It is a simple twin lens box camera from the 1950's. Why would I want this? I have been interested in try some TTV Photography for quite a while. A quick definition of TTV Photography is a photo taken with your digital camera through the viewfinder of a old camera. It acts as sort of filter. I have seen some very beautiful photos using this technique and was excited to give it a try. So here are a couple of my first TTV photos. I need to work on my "contraption." The "contraption" is something used to link the two cameras and block out any excess light. Right now I just have a crude piece of cardboard that is held together with some masking tape. I think will be this weekend's project. Anyway here is a few shots that I took.
