So holy crap, eh? It's been more than a few since I've darkened these pages with my presence! Well, just a brief recap. The kids are on summer break, they're Autistic, I'm bi-polar with screwy meds and ready to lose my mind. YAY!

I've done lots of shooting and I have to say, I do see myself getting better. Just again, to lazy or busy or tired to get them posted here (or red bubble... or flickr... or facebook...)! BUUUUUUTTTTT... you can see it at my shiny new website/blog [link] WOOT! I've got so much editing to catch up on too. I think when I participated in the Scott Kelby Photowalk, it gave me the much needed kick in the ass I was looking for.

So, what else... I've got 3 free sessions booked so far. 2 family shoots and a maternity shoot. I'm super excited. I've decided to do free shoots while I'm in my first year of photography school. Then starting next summer, I'll start charging. At least this way, I'm getting a chance to build my portfolio. ahem... er... um, so if anyone lives in Ontario and wants their event or portraits done... Free... edited... ready on disc to print... info@carolynmacpherson.com need I say more

OOOOOHHHH! And, although I'm kind of bummed today and totally cheated. I've been put on a metabolic diet by a specialist. I'm down 40lbs in the past 10 weeks! That's amazing for me! Now... just another 70 or so to go. sigh...

Anyone out there on Twitter? With a mind to going forward, I've joined and am looking for contacts I'm still working away at cleaning up some photos and hope to post them soon. I am SOOO not looking forward to summer when the kids are home everyday, lol. Perhaps a few photo safaris are in order?

Well, here it is in all of it's awful glory! I'm sure it's pretty basic stuff for everyone around here. Really though, I did it up for that gals over at Scraptiv!ty. [link] Awesome scrapbooking community there. I'm going to do a tutorial a month, I think, depending on what they'd like to know. So no heavy manip stuff... at least I'm pretty sure, lol. I'm thinking it will lean towards more editing stuff like red eye removal and straightening a pic... They may just surprise me though!

Oh and nevermind my clumsy writing. I just was too lazy to dig out the tablet from under the pile of paperwork its buried under!

Hope everyone liked the portrait of my hubby I did. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing and I just whipped it off in less than an hour. So I'm sure I can do better, but still. I find it humourous.

Hey all. I'm all bummed cause we're in the middle of a blizzard! Not impressed at all, seeing as we had lost all our snow and were hitting highs of 12C. Buuut, it's forcing me to stay in and look at some photos. You know sift through the newer ones and see if there is anything worth submitting.

Yaaaaay! WOOHOO! I'm so freaking excited, lol. Yesterday I attended a training course by Copic's North American division! I am now a Certified Copic Instructor!

What's that mean?! Welllll, I can't draw worth beans but I can colour all nice and pretty!


Now all I have to do is expand my Copic collection and find myself one of those big air brushing systems!
