Last Christmas, I've received a beautiful gift from @mrsgalvez and it's a camera. My first ever DSLR Camera.
I love photography and my wife knows that, I would capture every moment we have using my smartphone. Not just with a regular shootings but I put some arts on it.
Now that I have a real camera one, I step to study more techniques and browsing online for free protography tutorial. If you are with me, as a photography beginner, you don't have to study a phography courses and spend a lot of money. There are many outlets for learning in the web.
● You Tube | you'll see a lot of informative videos to help you start from your camera to proper exposures and shots.
● Facebook | instead of browsing different contents of facebook, start aligning it to your interest. You can ask to join to different close FB group of photographers from beginners to intermediate. Portrait to landscape shots.
● Follow any facebook photography pages that offers free tutorials, sometimes they offer free online study. There are • David Photography • Judy and Jack • New York Photography • Shaw Academy and ect.
The surely offers free online study, however, you still have to be careful for any further extra study as it implicates fees. Just be wise.
I CONSIDER MY SELF A BEGINNER:
As a beginner, I did went to different faucets of learnings to enhance my skills so I could finally start my own craft.
So, since it was my wife who gave the present, then I ask her an extra favour and that is to be my first PORTRAIT MODEL. Let me turn my lady into a beautiful woman.
here are some of my shots and if you know about photography, your CC would definitely be appreciated.

▪ I thought like it is really fun to have your wife as your model but not at all lol... she tends to complain due to many shots attempt and it was freezing outside. hahaha! Well, the word BEGINNER was my excuse.
I do love her emotion in this picture though. yeah I love her! she's my queen <3 _

I think photography is a stress reliever to me. Anyone could make it a habbit even just using the smartphones, bu only few who make an extra step to make it a profession. I hope someday, with proper guidance and study I could reach the peak but for now, I'll just enjoy my self with the process. And I am for sure that this Steemit platform could help me a lot.
Now that I have the Steemit, I'll post it here and share all my crafts.
Thank you guys for reading through. Appreciate it a lot.
To all the woman out there, you are more than who you think you are. You are way beyond what your eyes sees and that is all the men should think about. You are a treasure!
God Bless!
