June 20, 2007 - First day of Summer!
Ok, so it's not New York City...or even Chicago. But it is Des Moines...and I call it home. Me and my sister walked around downtown this evening while I snapped shots here and there. Even for the hour or so we were out getting all these shots was totally worth it!!! Enjoy! Oh and Thank Goodness Summer is finally here!

June 19, 2007 - New Site, New name, and I'll throw in a few pics
Bare with me everyone, I know a lot has been changing off and on around here. I guess I just have this vision of what I want the site to look like, so I keep changing my mind. I knew that I wanted for animation, and I'm pretty happy with what I got. The links on the info page won't work until tomorrow, I didn't have time to get those finished, and I accidently published the website a little early.
Oh! Let me know what you think of the new name. Color me Happy came to me because my favorite movie is Pretty Woman and there is a line when she says "Color me Happy" and for some reason, it makes me think of photography also. I would keep Danielle Padget Photography around, but it's long, and people have a hard time saying and spelling my name...and that's gets frusterating.
I was really bored tonight, and it's been a long time since I've taken pictures, so I got my camera out and tested some new learning points from school. I am getting really good at exposure and there is sooooooo much that makes sense now. So far I think exposure and lighting conditions are the hardest thing to learn and understand. But suddenly it just seems to make sense, it still takes a lot of trial and error for me to get the right setting, but usually doesn't take as long, and now I actually know what I'm doing...before it was just...ok, let's try this...if it looks good I'll stick with it. Anyway, I got this picture of my cat April, that just cracks me up because I think she looks like she's smiling. And then I added another that I actually really like! Enjoy!

June 2, 2007 - John and Sheila's Anniversary
This was my Aunt and Uncle's 25th anniversary - Congrats! They had what was suppose to be a surprise party thrown by their oldest daughter Heidi, but about a month before the party...it was no longer secret. They renewed their vows, it was so beautiful and exciting. They are a true inspiration of love. Here are some of my favorite shots.
