A few days ago I had a chance to hang out with an old buddy of mine from junior high. We got into talking about our career life and how we see ourselves in a few years. He is very interested in starting up his own company, and since he is a software engineer he has already got the skill to create something. Then he asked me what would I want to do? If I become more skillful in photography field in a few years, will I be willing to become a full time photographer?
This question got me thinking. If I really become skillful enough, will I quit my job with a stable paycheck and become a full time photographer and get paid case by case?
Consider photography is something I like to do it wouldn't be a bad thing to have a full time career on it. However, the idea of not getting a regular paycheck kind of holds me back also. I guess there really is a great difference between being your own boss and working for other people. There are too many things to worry about if I want to ever have my own business. The good thing is There is still a long way till my photography skill will reach a full time worthy career, so I still have plenty of time to decide.

Sandy is a good friend of mine here in Davis. Last time we got in talking about her past photo shoot experiences in Taiwan, and I thought it would be great if she can model for me to practice some shooting. Sandy was very nice to agree to help me out and we spent a whole afternoon in various places of Davis to capture some shots. In this set I had more chance to practice shots with more background ratio to model. Since its important to have great background during engagement & wedding photo sessions. During the editing, I added some split toning to the photos to fill the photos with more warmth. It was a successful shooting session.
