Weekend and Wishes

This weekend totally consisted of getting ready for my first ever photo shoot...which you can see below.

 
Last weeks wishes:
[One] Start to figure out my camera:  I want to take at least 3 pictures I am proud of in manual mode and share them here next week....Well, here they are.  The opportunity presented itself to take some baby pictures.  No, they aren't perfect.  No, I don't have any fancy software or a prime lens yet...what you take is what you get.  BUT, I don't hate them.  

[Two] Start to watch the tutorial that came with the camera: Self-explanatory....Umm, I didn't do this, but I did watch a whole lot of Youtube videos. 
[Three] Keep up with 10k training: This is my first full week of work, so I know working out is going to be harder....This was an absolute FAIL.  I actually hurt my knee and was advised to take a break from running to avoid long-term damage.  I am starting 30 Day Shred this week...wish me luck!


This Week's Wishes:
[One] Do 30 Day Shred 5 days this week.
[Two] Continue to learn about my camera.
[Three] Do something different with my hair at least 3 days...I totally stole this from someone's wish I saw last week, but they had a great idea and I am boring when it comes to my hair.

  1. Your pictures are beautiful! :)

    I don't have a DSLR but I do have a semi pro one with manual settings whose manual I still have not gotten around to reading. Might steal your goal for next week :)

    And I was also thinking of doing the 30 day shred!

    Hope I'm not starting to freak you out.

  4. Those photos look Amazing! You're really learning fast!

    I'm sorry to hear you hurt your knee. I think it's a good idea to stay away from running for awhile so it can heal faster. good luck with your wishes this week! :)

  5. Those pics came out great, and that baby is so precious! I am dealing with the same (knee issue) and its better to rest it so you don't do further damage.

  19. Um, hello there, but those photos are GORGEOUS! I love the lighting that you used in them and your subject choice is ADORABLE! Make sure to rest that knee because they aren't messing around with that long-term damage stuff. Good luck working out and Jillian is always a great choice to get fit with, my favorite DVD of her is the Ripped in 30. For some reason me and that DVD can go the distance and everything she says in the dvd just GETS me. Good luck and I am rooting for you to rock it out. :)
