No turning back now ...

Heads up, everybody: Gail has entered the blogosphere!

Yep, I'm becoming one of those people who has a blog. No, it's not just so I can tell others to read about what I did last weekend or my thoughts on this movie or that album (though those asides may find their way on here), but because I have a purpose in mind (if you couldn't tell by its title!)

What I'm finding is as I delve deeper into the world of photography is that a lot of the people I admire in this field -- be they talented professionals like my wedding photographers or simply amateurs with aspirations like mine — is that they keep others posted on what they're up to via a blog.

Creating this blog is a step I knew would come if I was going to get serious about this whole photography business. I just decided to make the leap now because I figured — the sooner the better, right?

I'm hopeful this little site will get bookmarked by friends and family (and someday, clients!) who remember to check in with me on occasion. By doing so (though they may not know it) they'll be helping keep me accountable in reaching my goals and staying active taking pictures — even if (for the time being) they are just of the Werner family dog.

So, without further ado, meet Daisy.

Daisy is beautiful... and Gail - you are really amazing. I am so happy to hear that your channeling even more of that incredible creative energy and talent. I've been a fan of your art since the fifth grade when we worked on our color wheels. I still remember when you captured a landscape using only dots in eighth-ninth grade... I was blown away by the depth and perspective. Now, I am excited to watch you develop your photography skills (taking notes the entire way of course).

It's a great first posted picture, that of the family dog. Way to put your trigger finger where your passion is. Bookmarked!

Ahh.. you guys - thanks SO much for the love. You have no idea how much this means to me!

(And Sheila, way to bring up elementary art - I needed an excuse to remember Mr. Tarr! HA!)
