I have a belief that self-confidence is one of the most attractive qualities a person can have. I also believe that every single person in the world has the right to own that quality. (I’m still working on it…)

4 Dec 2009:
Years ago I was a model for some friends of mine who were learning photography. I really wish I had been able to learn with them, but I just absorbed what I could while I was around.

2 years ago, I got a canon Quickshot and started to take some pictures, some of which actually looked quite good. I looked up concepts and ideas to teach myself more about the art of photography, and made plans to get a decent camera.

A month or two ago, I got another Canon, this time moving into the DSLR with an EOS 1000D!! I was so thrilled! I’m still reading through the manual and slowly learning how to use it.

Almost 4 weeks ago I gave birth to my 3rd child and I’m now back at work part-time. Time has become so precious. I still plan on learning as much as I can and really want to get out there more to take more photos. I WILL get there. It’s a long-time dream.

(I am also showcasing some of my husbands cartooning)

Take care,
Sonja
