Photography Does Lead to Scrapbooking

Not all photographers agree that photography and scrapbooking go hand in hand. While everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I disagree.

100 Digital Pictures Printed and Shipped to You for a Buck

I love my little digital camera. It’s a Canon Elph that we got a couple of years ago. One of the best things about it is that it doesn’t use batteries. My best friend’s camera can go through four double As every month. The Elph battery just plugs in to the wall! A couple hours later, it’s fully charged and ready to go. I figure I’ve saved more than the cost of the camera in batteries alone. We take tons of pictures with it. It has served me well, and made me look like a better photographer than I am! … Continue reading →
