Happy New Year!

I love the beginning of things--and new years are no exception. 2010 is looking exciting; looking back, 2008 was amazing and 2009 completely blew my mind, and I'm hoping that the trend continues.One thing that I hope will contribute to that is my new purchase: a Canon 5D Mark II. In addition, I bought two lenses from borrowlenses.com: a Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 L II, and a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro. I already had a Canon 50mm f/1.8, so I think it's safe to say that I now have an arsenal of gear that should serve me for quite awhile.I picked all of this up just before I left for Seattle to spend the holidays with my family. They are the BEST, and we've been looking forward to getting together for months--we all just have such a great time together. As soon as the trip was locked in we started talking about the family photos we wanted to take. There are tons, and I'll be posting them in the coming days, but this is one of my favorites for sheer absurdity:More to come!
