			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are a twitterer (is that a word? haha) you might have seen the new craze going around, FormSpring. It is a great way to ask someone ANYTHING both with your account or anonymously. I love it because sometimes you can ask the questions you might otherwise feel silly asking if your name was attached. I have been sending out links to ask me questions on twitter but I wanted to open it up to my clients as well. So both photographers and clients alike, ASK ME ANYTHING at all, it can be photography related or about my favorite food. I promise to answer it, and if it is a big enough topic you might see a blog about it in the future. You can ask here with the widget or go to <a href="http://www.formspring.me/heathergarland">http://www.formspring.me/heathergarland</a>. Ask Away!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;its nice to know if you have something in common with your photographer before you book them. Of course you will get to know me at your consultation before you book. However, before you even spend your time at a consultation, I wanted to give you a glimpse into my life. So here is 10 random facts about me, that show you Heather Garland, not just the photographer, but the girl.</p>
<p>1. If you ask me my favorite food, I will tell you anything that I can dip in homemade ranch dressing. I dip EVERYTHING in it, but will not touch the store brand.</p>
<p>2. I actually rarely watch TV, almost never, and get made fun of all time. If Boy Meets World or Grey&#8217;s Anatomy is on, however, I refuse to miss it!</p>
<p>3. I use the computer WAY too much. I am always on here editing pictures, researching new photography techniques, trying to learn all the time. My parents make fun of me saying I am addicted to it!</p>
<p>4. I love reading. I read every time I have time. I would much rather read than watch a movie! I love making the characters look how I want them to, be how I want them to be, and become sucked into a story and becoming one of the characters.</p>
<p>5. I am a very picky eater! I order everything plain and rarely try new foods! However, I like to try CRAZY food like rattlesnake, buffalo, and I once ate pickled pigs feet for fear factor at my church!</p>
<p>6. I love to travel, I mean LOVE! I have visited almost every state in the US. I have also been to Canada, Mexico, Italy, and Greece. I adore California and it has to be my favorite place to visit. I love getting to see new places.</p>
<p>7. I love visiting museums and I hate shopping! I love getting to go explore some new adventure while on vacation or go to a history museum. All my friends want to go shopping or lay out on the beach. I, however, hate doing that though! It&#8217;s such a waste of a vacation, you don&#8217;t get to see all the amazing sights!</p>
<p>8. I am not very girly sometimes! I hate the color pink, I could care less if I have a tan, and it may take me 45 minutes to get ready but 30 minutes of that I am usually on the computer or goofing off. I can get ready in 5 minutes when I want to, because I hate mornings!</p>
<p>9. I have a whole lot of weird fears! My worst is heights, no matter how hard I try to get over I freak out! I once went up a Mayan temple in Cancun and almost would not come down! I am also terrified of the dark, it scares me and I freak out if I am alone! I really hate snakes and spiders and if one is seen I scream like a little girl and sprint away! I also am really scared of cars, especially in traffic. Weird I know, but I am always scared I am going to get into a wreck and die. My last fear is fire, my house burned down when I was two and a half so fire really freaks me out!</p>
<p>10. I tend to be my hardest critic. I have a hard time being satisfied with what I do. It can be great because I am always getting photography books from the library, researching, studying photos, trying to learn.</p>
<p>So I hope you got to know me a little better and maybe you can find something kooky in common with me!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thats how I feel lately with two back to back weddings. It&#8217;s great I LOVE IT! But at the same time it can be overwhelming, because it is a very new experience. I also have my uncle and soon-to-be aunt&#8217;s engagement shoot tonight which should be fun! I am printing two of my clients photos right now. There are at least 3 soon to be bookings, we just have to decide on a date. It&#8217;s busy. Fun, but busy.</p>
<p>I am loving all the things I am learning though. Things not to do, things to do. New ways to edit. Just to put a plug in here, if you don&#8217;t have <a href="http://gettotallyrad.com/">Totally Rad Actions</a>. Get them!!! I have both TRA &amp; TRA2. They have really changed my photos and made editing 3x faster, easier, and better.</p>
<p>I still need to get a better workflow, I feel like I am slow in getting photos sorted and edited. It&#8217;s fun though, I am learning, I am growing, and I am busy. So just wanted to give an update to my clients and anyone else who cares what is coming up. I am working hard on photos, and I am getting booked up. So if you want a session, contact me soon, before the date you want is gone.</p>
