			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">We&#8217;ve had this pretty little blog template all ready to go for weeks now, but I&#8217;ve been struck with blog paralysis.  Where to start?  How to begin?  The empty layout just sits here, mocking me.  So for better or worse, I will take a stab at breaking this blog in.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The obvious place to start is with introductions.  So hi there!  I&#8217;m Lynn, and one-half of West Park Photography.  Andy is my partner in crime (&amp; photography) and will undoubtedly be leaving his mark here as well soon.  We are in our first year as professional lifestyle &amp; wedding photographers.  Like many other photographers in our field, what started out as a favor for a friend turned into a passion for creating once in a lifetime images for couples to treasure.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As for how we got our start taking pictures, it&#8217;s an amusing story.  We both borrowed (stole) our parents cameras.  Andy started off shooting with his dad&#8217;s Nikon, and I started off with my mom&#8217;s Canon FT-b.  We&#8217;ve both been serious camera collectors and photography geeks since high school.  To add to the coincidences, both of our cameras were regrettably stolen in our 20&#8242;s &#8211; and this is before we met, mind you!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Today we shoot with digital cameras and I have the distinction of having recently won Andy over to greener pastures &#8211; that is, he made the switch from Nikon to Canon!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Besides photography, we share a mutual love of Vespa motorscooters &#8211; in fact we can credit a certain plum vespa in my garage to us first meeting &#8211; a story we will share at a later date.  We love music, geeky things, office supplies, going to the farmer&#8217;s market, and checking the status of the tomatoes currently growing in our garden.  We share our home with 3 hardluck kitties, and a rambunctious half-chocolate, half-yellow lab with a pink nose.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Welcome to our life and images.  <img src='http://blog.westparkphoto.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' title="Getting our blog on....   Michigan Lifestyle and Wedding Photographer" /> </p>
