amber_bates Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 <p>Hi there :)<br> I'm Amber Bates and I live in Australia. I'm a mother of 4! 2 boys, 2 girls who range from 1 - 7.<br> I LOVED photography in highschool and probably would have followed it as a career path if not guided in another direction by my parents. I've continued to love photography since leaving school but will admit to putting away the manual SLR in favour of the very portable digital point & shoot. My husband has encouraged me to take some me time and i find myself drawn back to photography. The 35mm is out of the cupboard and getting a workout, although i'm rather rusty!<br> Ideally i'd love to grow into a professional natural light portrait photographer over the next 5 years or so. If i'm not good enough to go professional i'll love the journey anyway. I'm always up for a challenge!<br> I know nothing about the world of DSLR or digital editing but look forward to learning plenty.<br> Amber</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
