Morning On Kellogg
I’m Jim Denham and I’m a photographer. There, I said it. They say that admission is the first step in the process, right, so I’m admitting it. I’m a photographer. There was quite a time of denial several months ago where if someone asked if I was a photographer, words like “not really” or “sort of” were spouted, but the denial phase has come and gone and yielded to the acceptance phase.
OK, I’m not in any 12 step program for fixing my photography addiction, but I probably should be. It is an addiction. And the addiction is not just focused (pardon the pun) on any one type of photography – it’s all kinds. Family, events, street, action, HDR, macro…I have even shot one wedding, and I LOVED it! That’s right, you know that’s a sign!
So what got me here? I blame my kid. He gets blamed for everything else that happens so why not this, too? Well, it’s actually legit and is likely the same cause as others who have gotten into this wonderful art. We have a kid and we want to document his life, so we go out and buy a point and shoot camera. Then he starts walking/running and that camera doesn’t perform well enough anymore, so we need to get one with more reach so we don’t have to keep up with him. The new one comes with a class on how to take better pictures, and that’s the beginning of the end. Read More→
