This is THE book for bloggers. When I was playing with the idea of blogging, I had no idea where to start. The actual question of, “What do I actually do?” stalled me. Then I ran across Abbey Lawson from Just A Girl and Her Blog. Oh my goodness! She is absolutely incredible! She is incredibly successful, but also a REAL person. I couldn’t be more blessed to have run across her. No matter what stage of blogging you are in, Abby has tried and trued practical advice. Her book, ” h Building a Framework,” has all the answers I couldn’t find just googling.
I have enjoyed photography SO much! I spent months searching for a good beginner camera. I read articles, reviews and talked with professional photographers. I finally landed on the Canon Rebel t5. This camera has been a game changer for blogging. But honestly, my favorite part of this camera is getting to capture such incredible pictures of my family and our everyday life.
PRO TIP: Learn to shoot in manual! It takes time and practice, but it’s worth it. There are lots of free webinars and books to get you started. Plus, it makes you feel “official” when you can do the settings yourself. 😉
>After shooting for about 6 months, I got to use some incredible lenses from a professional photographer. It was such a great experience and really made a difference. I didn’t have a huge budget, so again, after reading articles and talking with photographers, I went with a Canon 50mm/1.8 STM lens. It was one of the best investments we ever made!
