Taryn Leigh Photography's photostream  

I'm a stay-at-home-mom of three little ones (including a set of b/g twins) with a new found interest in photography. Although I it's hard to find time, I still find myself taking pictures, editing and sharing my photos almost every day.

I just started my professional photography course at New York Institute of Photography. I use a Canon 40D and currently only have a 28-135mm lens, a 50mm f/1.8 lens, a 10+ macro filter and a remote. I'm not yet sure of my photography niche just yet. I'm still trying to figure that out. So far, I am interested in portraiture (I know, very general but like I said, I'm still figuring it out) and macro. I would like to get into travel for more cultural/geographic photography but money and time prohibit me at this point in my life.

Right now, photography is just a hobby. I tell myself that so that I have no expectations and therefore won't be disappointed in myself if I don't have what it takes as a pro. But.....considering my recent investment in school, I'm sure you can tell I secretly would like it to be a career, something to fall back on and something for me to do when the kids are in school (or at Grandma's).
