Wishful Wednesday ....Career


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

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?

  4. 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!

  6. 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!

  7. 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.

  12. 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.

  15. 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.

    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...
