Beginning

So, this is my first post on this here do-hicky. I was slightly apprehensive at first about starting this whole "blogging"thing, but I figure it is a good way to get my name out to the public. So, I guess I'll start at the beginning? Here it goes:

I have had an interest in photography since, oh I don't know, 5 or 6. My mother was certainly the driving force behind my passion, constantly giving me disposable 35mm cameras on vacations, and trying to get me to fill them up as soon as possible. The first time I remember using the camera for an artistic purpose was to photograph a bunch of flowers on a walking path in North Carolina. Using the 35mm, I got way to close up, and of course the pictures were blurry and under-exposed. Even though it came out absolutely horrible, I knew this was something I wanted to pursue as a career choice.  
I soon decided to start saving up my money to buy a good camera, not some crappy point-and-shoot. I chose to buy a Fujifilm Finepix S6000fd (i know, not really much better, huh?) This skyrocketed my love for photography. I went everywhere with it, filling up my card constantly. I had no clue what I was doing, but I knew I loved it, and knew I was going to do it for the rest of my life. At the end of junior year of high school, I made the final decision; I was applying to art school. Some family members weren't entirely too keen on the idea, but (with the support my sister), I decided it was what I wanted to do. Since I've been here I've learned so many techniques and skills that help further me as a photographer. 
I'm still unsure with what I want to do as a career, but I know I'll figure it out eventually. Right now, I'm just trying to do the best work I can. We'll see how it goes.
