Our miniature dachshund Charlie, kissing Stephanie incessantly.

For the first time in several years, I finally have a camera other than my phone again. The Canon EOS Rebel T3 will go down as my first-ever DSLR; I had been considering the T3i carefully but in the end opted to save several hundred dollars and not sacrifice much image quality (12 megapixels is plenty for someone who primarily works on the Web). So far, I’m really liking it, and I’m excited to see what kind of fun, cool stuff I’ll be able to do down the road. (I might even change this site’s incredibly stale header photos, too!)
