Dust-Off-My-Shoulder

Okay so I've been MIA for quite some time now... ALMOST A YEAR! But I'm back :) Check out my blog if you'd like to see what I've been up to lately http://photographybychanique.blogspot.com Quick recap on what I've been doing: - I'm getting married in almost 6 months (193 days to be exact - HAHA, thank you theknot.com for keeping me informed) so I've been busy planning and shopping and all the other things you do before a wedding - Finished my photography studies and received my diploma - I went to Italy (photos to follow) - Went on the usual family vacations: Gourits, Mabula I'll be updating my portfolio with tons of new pics soon - s

I noticed that some of the photos I'm uploading lately don't look exactly like they should - I have some monitor calibration problems but they should be sorted shortly. Thanks for all the faves and encouraging words! :thumbsup:

So today is my 21st! Yeah! And I have had a fantastic day... So far! This afternoon I walked into the store and bought a new 75-300mm lens - CASH! Oh man did that feel good! Going away for the weekend with my family and 10 friends and I can't WAIT to see the fantastic pics I come home with! Hope you like the new stuff I've been doing? Moving away from nature and more toward people photography - I've really started enjoying capturing the interactions between people... Hope to show you some more withing the week! xxx
