Heyyyyyyy Ya’lll!!! If you’re reading this it’s because I’m in ……IRELANDDDD…..trucking around the country with my best friend Erin and her husband and Greg. While I’m away, I thought I’d schedule some blog posts on some FAQ’s I get from either Formpspring, Facebook or thru my email. I hopped on and recorded my response to the FAQ’s: What’s in your bag? What lens do you use most frequently? and What editing software do you use?
*please note: I said that I had a 75mm lens in the video …..<insert buzzer> WRONG….I MEANT to say 85mm. Sorry to confuse you. Below are the exact lenses I use:

Hi Jen! Thanks for the great blog post. I was just wondering,how did you get in photography? Could you maybe talk a little about how you got into the profession and what your training has been? Are you self-taught? I’m totally self-taught and have been learning things along the way with every shoot I do. How long did it take you to get comfortable with meshing what you envision in your mind with camera settings, etc? Also, do you shoot in manual? I try to shoot in manual mode as often as I can but sometimes It’s just easier to shoot in Av/A mode especially with little ones that are moving around really fast!
Thanks so much!
