Self Portrait

So I finally registered on Dgrin and introduced my self with my self portrait. You know it's not easy to take a good self portrait. Between getting the lighting right, trying to get yourself in focus (used a tripod instead of hand held), and making sure the 25mph winds didn't blow all your equipment over, it made for a tough set up. I think it turned out pretty well considering. Definitely a good assignment for any photographer.

Let Me Introduce Myself

Hello world!! As a newcomer to the blogging world I want to introduce who I am and what I do. My name is Darci Elli Hook and I live in San Diego, CA. I have been in the US Navy for the past 8 years and am starting up a photography business. Most of my photography is landscape and nature but I am beginning to branch out into Portrait photography. I can do location shoots using both natural light and flash. My shooting style is more natural and candid shots of people interacting to really bring out their true personalities. Please check out my website Darci Hook Photography and feel free to order any photos of your liking.
