After spending Christmas in Seattle and playing with Jeff’s camera for the week, Trey and I decided we needed a new camera to document Vivi’s first year and beyond. After looking into the benefits of a Nikon and a Canon, and checking out different sales we decided to get a Canon Rebel XSi, and I LOVE IT! I spent the entire weekend reading the instruction manual and checking out the The Pioneer Woman, which has a photography section with tutorials on how to use digital SLR cameras. I learned all about aperture, exposure, ISOs, and composition. I have already learned so much just by playing with it and have discovered I really like to take close ups with a wide aperture. I love how you can get a crisp image up close and have a background details blurry. The pictures I have started taking of Vivi are much better quality than the ones I had been taking with my point and shoot camera. Keep checking in to see some of my shots of my Vivi Girl!
Erin-she is just precious. I have been thinking about getting a new camera as well. I have heard lots of good things about the Canon Rebel and this cute picture makes me want to go get one today. Keep posting your great pics!!
