Stop & Smell The Rose's Vlog

Hey Friends!

Hope you all are having a great week!! 

Today, I am participating in the "Stop & Smell The Roses" Vlog Link-up at House of Rose. Vlogging is something that is a little bit foreign to me, but I really want to get better at it!! I thought Mandy's party would help me to improve my vlogging skills & hold me accountable so that I would have to vlog at least once a week. I'm hoping the more I put myself behind the camera, the more comfortable I will get!! I would love to incorporate vlogging into the DIY tutorials on this blog. I think it would be super helpful to SEE the steps rather than just read them in a blogged tutorial.

With that being said, this video is far from perfect!  I am going to have to look into some video editing software to make my videos a little more interesting & I'm also in need of a good tripod!! My hubby filmed this vlog for me last night & you will probably notice a little camera shake going on. Oh well, you learn as you go, right?! If you have any suggestions on video editing software (for PC) or what kind of tripod I should get, please leave them in the comment section!!

    But now I feel like I know you a bit better ... it helps to put a real face and real voice behind the blog up front ...

  8. Hi Tonya,
    I just found your blog. You did a really great job on your first Vlog! You speak so clearly and you are so pretty!
    So glad that you were able to enjoy Blissdom! Just curious, how did the hotel room accomodate 4 women? Did you all have to share beds with women you never met before? Eeek, if so, I would have been nervous!

  14. OK, fess up.... did you want to crack up a few times while you were making the video? I'd have to do only out takes, I'd never get it right. Nice job, camera shake and all.

    Canon makes a tripod for cameras.that I also believe may fit for video cams as well. It's changes from.a short level to a high level and works nicely for what you would be doing. Loved the vlog by the way! I will also follow you pintrest. My husband said I should check out your site and he was right. I love it!

    And I cannot wait to see you again at Haven.
    Love you!
