Being an Entrepreneur: Guest Speaker

I recently had the opportunity to be a guest speaker at Miss Perryman's 4th grade class at Greenbriar Elementary. They are studying business and basic economics right now. I was a featured small business owner and entrepreneur. It was fun to be able to explain what running your own business is like and answer their questions. My favorite question had to be if I got to eat some of the wedding cake. My answer was yes of course and I even admitted that on occasion I ate two pieces. (one- I love, love good cake, two- the extra sugar rush helps me through the later parts of the reception)

In preparing to talk to the class I remembered that I was in 4th grade when I started to get really interested in photography. My dad let me borrow his old Pentax manual camera, before then I was shooting with a sweet plastic purple 110 film camera. I instantly was intrigued over the options of what a manual SLR held. Lots and lots of rolls of film later and the switch into digital and then I found myself taking pictures as my career. I guess it's never too early to begin developing your passions!
