As I look at these pictures, it makes me immediately relax and chill.  The simplicity of enjoying farm life shines through on most of the images below. It was a pretty busy day at the Sheep Shelf Open House (Farm).  They had a great variety of stuff to purchase sheep milk dairy products, wool dryer […]

Week 4 is behind me.  It’s definitely been a “Country” story telling week.  Wild Turkey’s, yarn spinning, tractors and gardening. As I look at the images that I like best there is one common theme.  Shallow depth of field is my favorite. I am hoping to develop my own style of photography this year, but […]

This week started out looking outside of the box.  I tried to look at composition differently that I normally would. As soon as I sat on the tractor and saw the old dials, I knew it was a different angle that I wanted to capture.  Looking down and looking back in time to 1958. It’s […]

My living room has a great southern facing window that lets in a ton of natural light, but with all the distractions in my living room, I struggle getting product images that were clean and crisp and distraction free. I was surfing through Pinterest one night and came across a DIY Light Box to help […]

Week 2 of #teira365 My biggest learning (or not), was Day 14.  Had my Tripod set up to capture some pics of me playing with the girls with a wireless shutter release, but since I didn’t set the focus on a subject (other than the fence), I couldn’t get us in focus.  It’s not bad […]

One of the photography bloggers that I follow, Bethany Deschamps at www.Bethadilly.com, has a great eBook called “The Everyday Photograph”. I have read the book a few times, and with each read, I get more inspired to look for a photographable (is that a word?) moment in my everyday. A few months ago, would I have […]

April 1st was the beginning of my #teira365 project.  The images are being posted on my Instagram page to keep me accountable. The purpose is to get me shooting every day (preferably with my camera and not my iPhone) and to look for what I may not naturally see that’s right before my eyes.  There […]

The Business side of starting my Photography Journey. Picking a logo was harder than I expected. I knew I wanted something fun but that’s really all I knew.  I also knew what I didn’t want (whimsy and pastel), but it was much harder to nail down what I DID want. My favourite colours are deep […]

My friend, Deb, is a trooper when it comes to my crazy adventures.  She is always up for helping me out and I’d like to think has some fun along the way.  Hard to say, lol.  It always seems to be super cold out.  A few years ago we played with night photography using sparklers […]

Well, I guess the best place to start is to introduce myself. Teira (tear-ah)…almost always mispronounced without my “Hooked on Phonics” guide.  Typing how to pronounce it is one thing, in person it goes more like “tear in your eye with an “a” at the end. I’m super excited to jump in with both feet […]
