A NEW age of a Professional Photographer: Hannah's Story


Hi all ya awesome general public, wedding professionals and photographers! I am here for Bless Photography by Hannah Bedell and would love to give an introduction... my first priorities are God, my health, my family, my friends and my business. After that I really do not do much except sleep, lol. I have a good sense of humor; I forgive and love those whom love and forgive me! It’s not very easy all the time - I've heard. I’m not a robot, just a mere mortal human. I love life… equally planned events to good spontaneous decisions. Presently, as long as my team and I are treated with respect and provided breaks and meal times. You got us alongside you, adults unless an otherwise pre-approved request.


Big story insights about Hannah:
When I think back to the days of my childhood I remember the first wedding that I photographed, as a guest with the disposable cameras (out for guests), it was very cool! As I grew older and pursued my passion, I was elected historian for my high school band and loved capturing images for the pages of our book. (One reason why I love to create hand made books and layouts on boards) I was skipping standard classes (none-the-less: A’s that year in all classes) and just grabbing lunch on-the-go to get back to post-process film or print work! I felt more a part of everything, I felt alive and awake and as an important team player! (Team player Interpretation: I’m a middle daughter in a family with 5 older siblings and my BFF younger sister, makes 7 of us to grow in love) 

I am inspired by my oldest son who is 9 already and he wanted his own page! He photographed at his first wedding 2 1/2 years old: Zachary T. W.

His current work of me recently, I helped set camera setting and work on different edits with him.





My family and I live to love each other and make the most of each occasion! They help me scout... and photograph me modeling or model for me when I want a subject in the scenery to bring it alive!

I excelled in the visual communications and video classes to learn photographic techniques and lighting and angles and theories, I loved every millisecond. I was honored by school and many friends whom were blessed and let me borrow. The year 2005 I was exalted to be given one that I have today, a Film SLR it honored me through my first beautiful senior sessions. As time changed I notice seniors multiply: I love twins and triplets!


Bless Photography By HannahSenior Triplets and their Buddy!

 I was humbled by family and friends and people who welcomed me to work complimentary while I was learning. My husband helped me learn how to know who to trust, Thank you!



I am honored by individuals whom are able to afford the luxury, God bless them by the way.  I was able to buy my own professional camera late 2005 and I became overwhelmed by compliments that I had to remind myself to be humble a lot! I always talked and worked together with fellow photographers, to keep humble. I am not attempting to be egotistical when I ask for paid work my way. I love what I do but it is a career not a hobby. If I'm a guest now a day, I will be your guest snapping discreetly but crying inside - Wishing I could hint you in to accomplishing my hearts aches to follow my God’s gifted talents and skills of knowledge to me. 

My main endeavor is to craft superior and long-lasting art work. No, I did not go to a university or get a degree but I feel that made me more affordable for those with $3000 budget Weddings. This correspondingly made me feel the need to learn more and crafted a course myself for fellow photographers to follow, who may want to learn how to professionally cover a Wedding for $30,000 budgets or more. Pre-Register for online classes, your choice from our listed course once you join our team: Apply online to be approved for our Team and you may enter our outreach rescue or programs if you qualify to be a team leader!  Thank you for answering our prayers for those in need.

NEW Photo Editor Technique and Process: No one is perfect, I have noticed  that in the past I have edited wrong with editing experiments and now I am fixed on my new post-processing, that is more efficient and budget savvy. All current clients get to see their originals and my edited work side-by-side. Plus extras are available in $$-$$$ paid ranges per image/media to cherry-pick what and how you want me to edit any image or media as well (prints are extra cost to you too)

-Photo Editor Technique- After


PHOTOGRAPHERS TEAM with GUESTS and WORK as a TEAM if they FEEL the NEED: Most people (pro photographers) are used to saying no, stop it or grumbling over shots they wanted to do but GUESTS got in the way and they did not know how to deal with them. Some couples unplugged a wedding and told guests not to photograph at all! What a shame that GUESTS - the loved one and the family or friends are rejected over just plain strangers! Yes, trained strangers but there is a better way... I have seen people still used disposable cameras for guests but most cameras were left unappreciated by most guests now a day. That is why I decided to make options for guests at your wedding to join us when they noticed something to photograph. They are given our email to send images for approval to be uploaded to your Gallery, if they would like to share and order prints via WHCC professional lab – Pre-planned and spontaneous acts of kindness are offered as well... (ie: Any other people share their cameras with a team or your family - even children at weddings? - Yes, something they had in mind a quick one... they always look awesome for me and the couple appreciate the kind gesture!) We let them help/photograph with one of our cameras (after I set the settings needed, if they were not trained)! We love responsible people to join us! Yes, even children are responsible and love it! Why not enjoy the day with your loved ones ideas participation to make it better? Who could it hurt; many photographers break cameras at this thought. I have no fear - for when I have decided to give that opportunity to the right person, all I have seen is the light shining. It takes me back to my younger years of my first wedding at 11, when my mom gave me permission to use as many disposable cameras as I wanted. I knew then, that I wanted to be a professional photographer with an amateur camera in my hand, let’s love and grow together! Apply online: Join us! Quiz

We love God… everyone deserves to feel welcome! If you would like to know more, let me know!

Eat for You

I really want to just chuck everything crappy out of my house. I have seen on weight loss shows how amazing and mummified some people were when they were getting a wake up call.
Here it goes; I found my alternative to eating disorders.
First step: Consume anything healthy
If only it were that simple, right?
Second Step: Remain active for my body health through-out each day
Falling into temptation happens….
Third Step: Realize and do not continue eating any of it… this will stop the addition of anymore damage to my body.
Fourth Step: Take small portions
Fifth Step: Shop for healthy temptations
food
Tea helps cramp my cravings as well.
Even little ideas for healthy eating are important, look at your baby food isle… amazing and delicious recipe ideas!
David Murdock on Oprah has great ideas about how to eat better. I am considering becoming a vegetarian after hearing his story. Although, I would miss my steak!

Shopping with sis

My sis and I went out shopping for a couple hours at a new Goodwill and we found some great items! We enjoyed eachothers encouraging conversation and helping pick out the best items. My sis is sweet and fun to shop with, there were several ladies who loved how we talked and complimented us for being ourselves. My total budget was $20 we came out combined to spend only $15. My sis is my Best friend forever! We have many things in common... I am very blessed to know my little sister!! Here is a photograph of my sister and I visiting on one of our recent shopping trips in Winter 2010...

A month old already!

Our son is one month today! It seems like just yesterday he was only a week old (like seen in the photograph on the right with his cousin K. holding him). It is exciting to watch and see how children change through different stages of their lives.  I am at a new stage of life now.  Working to balance my life, creating my ultimate goal of enjoying each day as a gift from god. 

Now for something new...to help learn my Art Life I want to ask...
Can you help?
  • My dad is having a hernia surgery this Friday... please pray for him
  • Read any good books, what are they?  
  • Watch an inspirational show or movie and please let me know (I loved watching/reading Joel Osteen yesterday)
  • I need help with my daughter's outrageous behavior... what discipline methods work for you?
  • Did you get to look at my website? Do you have any comments and ideas? (Check out the changes since yesterday) I simplified my website Art Life; I am still adding keywords and creating Artwork.
God Bless You and Yours,

We are moving this month!



On to new horizons....

A Beautiful New place to discover! 
There is a valley full of possiblities that my children will grow with joy to fulfill each of their own ambitions.

My Views in Life

When I put God first he heals my heart and keeps my lifestyle healthy in Body, Mind, Family, Society and Finances.

When I have open communication or an understanding this strengthen relationals with others when I speak truth and positively. 

Thought triggered by reading a blog post on WantingWhatYouHave
Healthcare is a divine right for humanity in my eyes when it is life or death, however cosmetic healthcare should be seperate and insured individually.


Value is all in who you are, how you buy and what you interpet your buying intitals.
I have noticed when I choose to buy something of interest for one reason or another. Both are required for me to buy, my past experiences of bargain shopping (second to last born in my family of 7) that create the need of savings or discount and something I think will be loved for it had atleast one useful purpose.
  • This is why I love making useful photography creations with great purpose
  • I believe in cherishing what you have, whiether they are resources from birth or hard earned
  • Organization is natural for me, it is to care for what I have been blessed with in my life
  • If I do no longer need an item, than I pass it on to another who needs it

25th Birthday thoughts

There is so much going on in my life right now... it is all excellent. Here is a sneak peak into my Birthday, current Blessings, Goals and News.

Before my Birthday, my sister visited and spent the night. We celebrated my birthday by hanging out and shopping at the mall.  We picked out a few items in a store called 'fuego'.  My sister got my birthday gift there, it is a book called 'Porn for Women', it is the most wonderful gift because it reminds me of how good I have it with my husband.  The book consists of photographs of hansom generous men doing everything woman want like asking for directions or cooking to letting us pick out the movie... sweet, honorable and loving!

On my birthday, February 23rd I had fun celebrating at a restaurant that was very nice and I enjoyed the food and conversation with my family and parents.  After the restaurant we had a cake that mny husband had custom made for me.  As my husaband was lighting the candles while I was reading the last chapter of one of my favorite novels - finishing the book 'Desire' by Amanda Quick.... (very delightful reading)  My family was singing "happy birthday" and I blew out the candles - thanking God for my wonderful husband, children, mother and father! The cake was a delicious chocolate double layered cake with green roses tapered down and "I love you!" and "Happy Birthday Hannah!" written in frosting on the sides.

My darling husband and I have been sharing sweet moments and keep clear communication to strengthen our love.  Times are good - with every moment shared, I enjoy and love my family even more.

This is our Last month in Washington, most likely we will be moving in Montana by early April 2010! I am excited more than I could say.... there are so many reasons why I will love this move.

Currently, I just started reading a new gift from my husband for my birthday - it is a book called 'Hannah' by Joel-Roul Sulitzer... this is another wonder of adventurous delight.  I read some to my daughter yesterday... while I was having her sit to get potty trained (she is almost there)... she loves being read to... my son reads to her too (I caught sight of him reading a book of animals to her on my birthday, what a blessing!).... He is doing better learning how to read everyday at lesson time.

Today I really enjoyed my walk outside, I saw an eagle gliding threw the sky - just below the clouds puffy perfection - sweet cool breeze was lightly blowing with the warm sun scenting it - creating frosted heat. 

Shortly after we got inside my son's sweet face smiling with satisfaction as he showed me an invitation to his girl-friend's birthday party. That same face turned serious as he said "can I go mom?... call her tonight... please, so she is not worried!" He made me feel so happy and fuzzy with great satisfaction that my little guy is very lovingly considerate. 

I am now 25 and I am working on writing my first book.
