Its been two years since my last journal entry and I only add a new deviation once every couple of months or so, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that this has happened, but I posted a new piece a few days ago and it may very well be the coolest one I've ever done. The crazy thing for ME is the fact that I've had LITERALLY ZERO comments/favs. Hmmm.. Is anyone still following me? I mean, the reason I stopped posting stuff so frequently was because I reached a point where I realized that over the period of time that I've been on dA, I've sold one print and haven't booked a single job.

I know its been forever since I've uploaded, but trust me.. It doesn't mean I haven't been shooting. This past school year, I shot senior pictures for 105 students!! Where last year, I only photographed six weddings, this year I have 25 booked, with some still pending!! I'm getting more and more jobs every day, and my work is changing all the time. I'm starting to shoot more and more conceptual stuff, and am telling new stories with sessions now, ESPECIALLY engagement shoots. They're fast becoming my favorite thing to shoot. Anyway, I don't know how much longer I'll have my dA account active. I'm wanting to get my website fully up and running

This isn't normally my thing, but I got tagged (that was a first.. woot!) and it was interesting enough I decided to participate.

Great photos, moving to Seattle soon and nice to know there are other awesome creative photographers around
Thanks for the great compliment! Sorry I'm just now responding! I don't get on dA much anymore. Find me on Facebook. Search Dave Ainley Photography.
oh it's completely fine!
Whoa dude! I am severely late in reading your post. Sorry! If you need to pick my brain- contact me anytime. Probably too late now? it's super rare for me to check DA these days. You could email me though, or facebook if that dosn't feel weird. : )

hope to hear from you soon! sorry I missed you.
So the piece I believe I was wanting an opinion on is called The Art of Parenting. Just curious to know YOUR thoughts..
