I always have a hard time when people ask me to take pictures. I LOVE doing it, I really do, but I also have no clue what I'm doing. I shoot away and hope a few turn out. This mommy wanted to pay me and there was no way I was going to accept it. I told her I was happy to do it but to keep her expectations low. You get what you pay for, which as long as I remain free, doesn't give people room to complain and that makes me happy and keeps it low pressure for me which in turn allows me to continue to enjoy doing it.
Here's a few from today:

These are amazing, especially for "not knowing what you're doing"!! You should really look into doing it professionally. How about photographing birth? (especially home births) That is a huge passion of mine but I've yet to be able to learn how to use my DSLR!
Thank you so much Jessica! It's something I really enjoy and I'm trying to learn more about. It's funny you mention doing it for births because Matt and I were talking about the same thing! I could be a doula/photographer/RN....odd combo, but why not?! I got a DSLR a year and a half ago and am just starting to learn a few of the settings. Those cameras are capable of SO much! I really would like to learn more too!
