Wall Art

I have three extra picture frames and I started going through all my old photos. After I graduated from college, and before I started my photo business I spent a year teaching overseas. I got to travel all over the world and take some pretty cool pictures! I wish I had my camera gear I have now. I'm just using a little $150 camera I got on ebay.

In other news...

My poor crazy dog. She returned home last night after having her "womanhood removed" I always thought spayed sounds too much like the procedure... except they don't use a shovel. Just too much imagery for me! But, she's doing great and has to wear this stupid scratch collar for the next week! My dog is the ultimate tom-boy, running around in the mud, getting dirty, playing hard and this collar is driving her nuts!



In other news...

Our pre-wedding counselor told us that he is responsible for the vacuuming in the house. Now, guess who is responsible for the vacuuming in our house?! ME! I shouldn't have been surprised that it would turn out like this but I really don't mind. Anyways, someone gave us a vacuum for our wedding, and it worked great for a year but then it started over heating and shutting down after I would sweep one room and the whole house would smell like burnt carpet. SO, we splurged and bought the number 1 rated vacuum on consumer reports... its an electrolux, I actually got it refurbished on Amazon.com for a steal!

We've moved!

Well, I've taken a looooong break from blogging because I've been busy trying to pack boxes, move boxes, unpack boxes, and on and on and on. We've finally moved! Christi starts school on friday so last weekend we moved into our awesome new apartment that's only about a mile from her school. I can't to get outside and take some pictures of the area because we live in a really cool part of Newport News.

Come Visit!!!

Online Store

Our new online store is launched!

I still am adding more products and finalizing the invoicing engine that we are using but I thought I would go ahead and let everyone get a preview of how we are going to handle much of our customer relations/business side of Ben Waddell Fine Art Photography:)

(our current pricing is on there) usually i don't like to make that public because it changes fairly often but I thought I would make an exception this time:)

I feel like I'm going to my own funeral!

So I've been training for a Marathon and today I looked on the schedule and realized I had to run a 17 miler. Then I looked and for the next six weeks I have to run 17, 18, 19, and 20 miles each weekend, along with about 18-20 miles during the week.

That's depressing, but exciting at the same time!

wish me luck:/
