Farewell to the "Le" Family... for now.

Just wanted to upload this as a sort of goodbye... but we will see you guys soon, so don't fret!

I snapped this we escorted them to the airport and brought their whole house with us...

On a side note, this was the first real picture I took out of my new (used) SLR! Yayyy! (I've been using an Canon S90 ever since my VN trip in Feb.) I found an AWESOME deal on a Canon Rebel XS. So time to go lens shopping hehe. And time to sell the S90. You've been good to me.

More posts to come as I go on exciting adventures with my XS!

the -->CHUBBY BUNNY<-- series: part 2 (san fran)

Inspirations

I first made this blog when I just bought my camera, so that'd I'd be forced to use it (SLRs aren't exactly cheap lol). Later on, I've gotten inspirations from other photographers, or from my "eureka!" moments as I was learning, or from a successful photo shoot, or even from seeing all the comments on my blog. But as fall hits, I usually put my camera down and stop shooting for the winter for some reason. I'd like to change that this year. So, could you help me by leaving a comment? Short, or long, it doesn't matter. Just so I know if there's anyone still checking on my blog. Any ideas of where I can get more inspiration?

And don't forget, I'd still be glad to do portrait sessions with anyone interested for the fun of it. ^^ (Plus, you'll get the prints, I have sooo many credits I need to use up!) Even if you don't live in Portland, you can make a request! (I'll try to make something happen)

Thanks for all your support.
