Photography 101

Andrew and I made our first big purchase for ourselves since Ryder was born: a new camera! Our other one was nice enough when we used it once in a while, but now that we take pictures nearly every day, we wanted something higher quality. My request was that we get a camera with a high enough shutter speed so that I wouldn't have to delete nearly every picture taken because Ryder decided to move when I pressed the button. Andrew did a little research and turned to his dad for advice, and on Friday we purchased our new "toy". We're having fun experimenting with it! We plan to do an Easter photo shoot outside this afternoon once Andrew mows, but here are some pictures we've taken with it so far.
