Wishful Wednesday ....Career


'I wish' .... I had the opportunity to change careers and it would be to become a photographer!


weheartit.com


I have always loved photos and see them as the best way to document life's greatest adventures!  I am the girl that whips out her point and shoot at each outing in hopes of capturing something memorable!  My friends roll their eyes, and I say, "Let's take another!"  I am also very particular about how my photos are taken, and it drives me nuts when someone cuts off your body or doesn't get the group in the middle.  AND, it isn't intentional or them trying to be artistic, lol, so that's when Picasa cropping comes in handy.  

I would love to have the creativity and gift to 
take a picture of a moment and save it for a lifetime.

NOW, if only I had a fancy Canon Rebel (hubby are you reading??) to practice picture taking, learn the different lenses that cost a fortune, and develop an eye to become an fabulous and well-known photographer.  With a camera like that, I could do wonders!  Wouldn't that be cool to be booked all over the world for parties, weddings, family sessions, and babies and more babies, etc.  I would want to do it all!!

How lucky would I be to say this photo was taken by me?  
It would be the perfect freelance job as a mommy, too!?


What career would you pick?

Unknown said...

that's what i would do if i had the time...right now with two busy boys...no such luck!!

great choice!!

Natasha said...

you are too cute!! you'd make a great photog and i'd let you snap all the pics you wanted (p.s. i am guilty of this too)

d.a.r. said...

I just wish I had an ounce of artistic talent so that I could be a photog!! I know that I will be begging for that talent when I have kiddos and want to document their lives!

Aimee said...

cute, cute, cute blog!

Katie @ Miss Klohn's Classroom said...

I am pretty sure that I would want to be a photographer too!

California Wife said...

I completely agree!!! I think it would be so much fun to be a photographer, although I have NO photography skills whatsoever! I can't even take a good picture with my point and shoot!

Jen said...

Oh that is a good one. I used to want to be a photographer, but then I realized I didn't really have a great eye. So, now I just take pictures for fun, and sometimes I get some really good ones! Honestly, though, boyfriend is a much better photographer than I am.

Neely said...

Great choice Kelsey! I'm like you I take a TON of pics! Chad gets annoyed and I say "whatever I like to have proof!" Haha.

Brittany said...

Long time no comment from me! Great choice :-) I'd love to be a photographer too. I love taking pictures but sometimes I get too caught up in the moment and forget to! Like at my step-sis's sweet 16. I'm terrible. I think you should look in this :-) Hope you're doing well!

Christa said...

I would love to become a photographer too!

Kristen said...

What a great choice, I don't have "the eye" for photography, but I think it would be so fun to be a part of all the happy moments in peoples lives that they want captured forever!

Summer Athena said...

its never too late. do it!

Sara said...

We recently purchased a Nikon dSLR and I love it! Now, I just wish we had more events to take it to...

One of the bloggers I follow on Twitter was selling her dSLR for a great price. Let me know if you want her info.

What a great pick! I can just see you getting people to strut their stuff and capturing beauty in everything. Hope your having a great week! xoxo

Kelsey Claire said...

I think I would choose the same thing. I have a Nikon dslr and I love it, but I need to learn photoshop...

Valerie said...

What a great choice! I've always wanted to take a photography class. I'd love to be an painter. I love painting, but I'm not very good. Maybe I should take a class for that instead.

Sarah said...

That would definitely be an ideal job! I would love to be a nature photographer...I'd rather not work with people:) My family gets all out of sorts when I pull the camera out!

Sammy said...

That would be so much fun! I think you would be a great photographer! :)

Lindsay said...

I think this would be an "ideal" job! Love your pick! :) Happy Weds!!

Cheryl said...

we are soooo alike!
I got a professional Nikon for my b-day and signed up for class 1 at a local photography school.
Are you on facebook? we should be friends, I have an album of pics I took for class...so much fun!
I would leave my accounting job in a second if I cold magically become a professional photo taker!
Only prob is it would take me away form the fam on weekends...not cool...

Lauren said...

Ohhh Kelsey this is a good one! Photography would probably be in my top 3. :)

LWLH said...

I would love to be a photographer...I'm envious of so many of the wonderful photography blogs out there

Tanya (a Taste of T) said...

Ooh I'd second that. I need to sign up for a class cause I love photography.

LC said...

I'm a photographer! :) Let me know if you ever need advice on equipment, tips, etc!

KacieB said...

How fun- you should definitely get a camera and turn the hobby into something big!

I want a Canon Rebel, also! I keep telling my husband, "Imagine the MAGIC I could create!" :)

Ashley said...

Photographer would be so much fun!!

Bethany said...

Great choice. I wish I knew how to take great photos!

Samantha said...

It would definitely be perfect side job while you're raising babies. That's why I want to do my ceramic art too!

Token Yankee said...

That is a great choice and I agree with you, I love photography!

Heather said...

I agree with, I would love to be a photographer and I also want a fancy schmancy Rebel too!

How amazing it would be to have the ability to take beautiful photos!

Anonymous said...

Fantastic choice! The more I read blogs, the more interested I become in photography!

Q, La, and Gooner said...

I wish I were a better photographer. I truly respect photographers who don't need photo shop to capture images. A little bit is ok, but people have taken this to a whole new level!

Jen said...

Oh I wish I would have been less busy and played this week! Photographer and wedding planner would have been up there in my top choices! :)

Dezzy Lou Where Are You said...

I too would adore taking pictures and getting paid to do so.
