i AM a photographer!

Wow, its been awhile... forgive me! I really just haven't had much to say or things I thought should be shared on my blog anyways. Today however I'm a little frustrated, if thats even the right word. Something happened yesterday that made me realize that the only reason people don't call me a photographer is because neither do I. 
Yesterday I over heard this comment "well, Ashlee takes pictures but we are having a professional take them" um... last I checked I am doing more then just 'taking pictures' but how is the world and my family for that matter supposed to know any different when I myself when asked what I do or where I work respond with 'Well I work as an Administrative Assistant at a company called Xango' Starting today my answer will be 'I am a wedding photographer, and I also work as and admin' sounds much better! I'll never get where I want to be if I can't even tell people I'm a photographer! Its silly I know but for whatever reason I've always had a very hard time saying positive things about myself, even calling myself a professional, but today I'm stepping out of fear and out of my comfort zone and from now on I will proudly claim that 'I am a photographer!'

Hungry... not for food!

Ok so i'll admit... lately I've been a little um... baby hungry? I don't think thats the word really, mostly because I don't like that saying, I just find myself dreaming of having a baby, and I can't stop thinking about how cute and sweet they are and the clothes are so tiny! However, at the same time, I know that 100% I'm not ready to bring a child into this world, I can hardly keep Kasey and myself afloat right now so until we are a little more settled and on top of things then maybe... call me greedy but I'm also enjoying having just Kasey & Ashlee time! So for now this is my family....
