Add me to the newbie lot... - 01-14-2008, 03:29 PM


Hello there! I'm pretty new to this forum, so thought I'd say hey. I spend a lot of time on the Open Source Photo forum, but thought I'd see what else is out there. Cool to find one full of Texas folk!

My husband is currently stationed here in San Antonio (technically Ft. Sam Houston, but we spend a LOT of time at Lackland Airforce Base). We have only been here since mid November and aren't sure how long we'll be here, so my business is in a bit of a limbo at the moment. I am a wedding photographer from Dallas/Ft. Worth, and that is where most of my clients are. So, I travel back to DFW at least once a month for work. However, I would love to start getting some work down here as well!

I've just recently branched out to designing albums for clients, and am working on my first design. Oh man....it is fun, but it's taking me a while as I have re-done every page multiple times! I'm using InDesign, which is actually quite easy, so I'll get faster after I have a couple under my belt.

I guess that's about it for now! Looking forward to getting to know you guys!!!

Welcome for the Hill Country (West of SA).

If you are interested in any other types of photography, check the San Antonio Forum. There is a bunch from the area that try to get together somewhere every month to take photos and fellowship. You're welcome to join in. Next gathering is Jan 26 in Fredericksburg.

Welcome to TPF! I was at Ft. Sam not too long ago for some training. I'll be stationed at Ft. Hood in Killeen. How long has your hubby been in the Army?
