new camera, big things, same model!

This week my husband gave me the greatest gift of all, my dream camera! I am finally the proud owner of a Canon 5D Mark II! I have drooled over this camera for over a year now! I can't remember ever wanting something so bad. I got butterflies every time I would go look at it and hold it. The day we went to pick it up I could hardly eat. My palms were sweating when we walked into Samy's Camera. Is this normal? :) I just knew what great things this camera had in store for me. The possibilities are endless. I have so many big plans for this camera and I. I can hardly contain myself! With that said, I can't put the thing down since I got it. It's such an upgrade from my last camera. All week I have been taking pictures of my favorite model, my pup. He is my baby. With my husband traveling each week its nice to always come home to a pup who is dying to see you. He keeps me company on what would be lonely nights. He loves to snuggle with me and his sad pup face always brings a smile to my face, no matter how bad my day is. He isn't as excited as I am about the new camera because he is officially over being the model. I'm sorry Winston but I can never have too many Winnie pictures. :)

Here are a few pictures I took this week while testing some new settings and adjusting to my new love, my camera. Thank you to my favorite model, Mr. Winston Wiggins and a big thank you to my husband. I've said this before, but the greatest feeling ever is when your significant other believes in you more than you believe in yourself. I am truly blessed to have married my best friend who is so supportive and never questions my goals. For that, I thank you babe!

Enjoy!












I caught Winston yawning but doesn't he look like he just saw a ghost? :) He is such a silly dog.


I am so excited for what lies ahead for Andrea Gene Photography! Keep checking back for updates!
