I told my friends that I'm trying to start my own photography business.
So Danielle and her family offered to be my first guinea pigs.
Here's a few teasers and the rest are on my webalbum.
For those photography experts out there.
Nearly all my photos came out too dark. I took them during the day, how can I fix that?

Wow! How fun! Good luck, you are off to an awesome start!
The first, and hopefully not the last. ;) You did a great job. We love the pics!
Hey, I'm no expert, but IMHO you have some real talent! Good luck as you build experience!
Seriously great job Jess! Us next please.
Aw shucks.
Thanks everyone.
Les, absofreakinlutely you're next.
Just let me figure out the lighting issue first. Or take a class on photography.
Jess,
Buy this book or get it from the library. It will help immensely and answer your concern about photos being too dark:

There are some good pictures in there. What kind of camera do you have?
Nate,
Thanks for the book suggestion. I'll check it out. You're the go-to family member.
Jeff,
I have a Pentax (not sure of the model) but it's an SLR and it's only got 1 lens.
Hey I just stopped by your site. You go girl!!! If you ever want some help call me or email me. I'd help in anyway you can.
BTW, photoshop is the best!!!! It can take an OK picture and turn it into something better.
Nicole,
Thanks so much!
Photoshop is on my wishlist. . .
Mother's Day is coming up, isn't it? Maybe Mark will get the hint :)
Jessica, I have a version you can use. Its not CS3 which you really need. Or CS4 which is the newest one. But I have elements you can load. It's a great place to start. Also, try ilovephotography.com
I have a friend photographer that turned me on to it. I love it so far. The free forum is a great place to start. You can get lots of help with your work. I just joined and am finding it very helpful. It makes me feel like I have no business taking pictures but makes me want to get better.
