52 fridays | week 1 | new

I'm so excited to be a part of this project with several other fabulous ladies.  I was so busy in the fall I rarely took the time to pick up my camera for fun or to photograph my daughter, something I did nearly every day for two years.  Make no mistake, fall is a busy time for photographers any year.  But I'm admitting that I overbooked, overdid, overworked - September through December.  I am so beyond thankful for all of my clients.  I accepted more sessions when I should have taken time off because I truly do love photographing families and children and some gorgeous weddings!!  Amy Schilling Photography wouldn't be possible without all the fantastic people I've met and photographed.  But because my personal files are sorely lacking these last few months, I've decided to shoot more in 2012.  To pick up my camera more between sessions - just for me.

So I'm participating in 52 Fridays and on each Friday throughout the year I'll be posting a photo corresponding with the week's theme.  Under my photo you'll find a link to the next photographer who is participating, and from there another, and so on.  Hopefully it will push me to think and see more creatively and to remember to shoot beyond business.  Week one is "New."  Appropriate to the new year and certainly our new start.  I kept it simple by photographing a new roll of duct tape that was sitting atop a stack of boxes to be taken to our new apartment in our new city.

Now sit back and take a virtual visit to Tulsa, Oklahoma and see what's new with the talented Ashley Alexander.
