My first post!

















Well here it goes everyone--my very first "blog". How exciting! I'm FINALLY doing it! YIPPEE!

For quite some time, I've had a few friends (mainly Erin and Liesl) tell me that I need to start a photography blog, and although I have wanted to, the world of blogging kind of terrified me. I'm not afraid of technology or anything like that, but I just hope that I can keep this blog up to date like I should. Plus, I'm a little modest about my photography. Although I've always enjoyed being in front of or behind the camera, I've only been really "shooting" creatively for about a year now.

In June 2008, I took the plunge and bought my first digitial SLR (I LOVE my little Canon Rebel XTi), enrolled in some classes at Watkins College of Art, Design, and Film then I shot, shot, shot away, and here I am. Who knows where my photography may lead me...all I know is, I love being able to capture moments of all kinds with my camera, and I hope to share a lot of those moments with you all!

This first photo I have posted is from an in-class abstract shoot, which was one of the most fun shoots I've ever had. I personally love the edginess and vibrant colors of this photo. Stay tuned, you may see more photos from this shoot in the future--after all, it was one of my favorite shoots so far.

So, bear with me as I figure out this blogging thing...and enjoy the view "Through Kristen's Viewfinder" :)
