I wasn't sure this day would ever come. I have been saving since the day I found out what a Mark II was about three years ago. The money just kept being used for various things and since I wasn't getting photography jobs frequently, I didn't think I'd ever make it. Well, thanks to hard work, patience, and some graduation money, I am the proud owner of a Canon 5D Mark II. That's right! I'm so incredibly excited to finally be able to say that and I cannot wait to figure out all the fun little tricks it can do.
If you're one of those people reading this right now, wishing you had a Mark II or even just an SLR, please know that you'll get there!!! I mean that. I was you every day until now but I didn't give up on myself and I only spent my money when I absolutely had to to save up. So just keep saving and before you know it, you'll be blogging a story similar to this. :)
Thanks to everyone who has followed my blog from the start and also, those who have followed recently! You all encouraged me to do this even though you probably didn't realize it. I am so glad I have this blog to share about my life! It's a great feeling. Be on the lookout for some Mark II photos coming soon! Hope everyone has had a wonderful Wednesday!
