About Me
- Apelila Photography
- Welcome to my blog my name is April and photography is my passion. I first fell in love with photography 18 years ago in high school. I discovered a black and white photography class and boom the start of a love. I have since picked up every book and bit of info I can get my hands on. ( Now a collection of 700 books) I have been called a camera nerd because I love to learn all that I can so that I can better myself in the field of photography. I have since started a business because of people asking me to do weddings, family photos, so I thought I'd give it a try I mean who wouldn't to do what they love :)

Calm Early Morning
I love waking up before everyone in the house and doing what I need or want. It's calm quiet and relaxing. This morning I just keep thinking I need to switch my camera bag out to try the new one, but I want to be quiet. Think I will wait and enjoy my time.

Thoughts
I'd like to open a gallery where people can come see my photographs. I'd find people that love my work. I'd love to open it in an odd building like an old fire house of theater. I see so many building that need some love, they just sit and waste away. I'd love to make them into something beautiful. Or open a graphic design/ photography studio in one. My first studio I had to walk away from I won't get into details, but it never would have gone far anyway. At least here there is a much bigger fan base I could build. But how to get started....

I Am Back
Hi there strangers. I know I have been gone for a long time. Life has gotten in the way as well as my mental health. I have a 5-year-old now and I am living in Chicago. I know big changes. Well, I am here and will be trying to get back to it. Writing has always helped me, so I hope to be chatting with you all again. I am looking to get started again doing what I love. Love and luck.

I Believe
Good Evening.. Tonight I am thinking about what kind of photography do I like to do. I have really thought and I believe it is more fine art photography or architectural photography that feeds my passion. I really do love to photograph people but in a candid setting so I may have to try more street photography.
I just changed my prices and can't wait because I really look forward to going to FotoChaos this coming April I hope to learn so much. I will be trying to attend more workshops, webnars, and other learning groups. I also want to obtain a membership with PPA. So I am off to go look at insurance for the studio and other info to try and get ready. I think mini sessions for the holidays are going to be soon so check back or find me on facebook or on my website. Happy shooting :)
