A New Toy

This past week Chase and I embarked on a vacation adventure to Washington D.C. (more on that in another post later) and before we went we purchased a new toy to help document our trip.

A Nikon D3100 Digital SLR camera. And we are in love with it! And we don't even really know how to use it yet.

I had been wanting a DSLR for a long time and had almost purchased on several occasions but never ended up pulling the purchase trigger. With the baby coming, presenting tons and tons of picture taking moments we thought it was finally time to hit that "Buy" button.

We decided to buy it for our D.C. trip so we could get some great shots of our nation's capitol and get some experience using the camera. We ended up with great photos but we definitely have a lot to learn about this new camera. The options with this thing are endless ya'll!

In the near future I plan on taking a photography class that will help hone my skills and hopefully make for beautiful snapshops of our soon to be here bean.

In the meantime, here is a sneak peak of our DC trip, photo taken with the new Nikon.

Happy Friday!
