If someone can help a nice girl out, that would be wonderful. Everyone tell's me this is an incredible camera. I just really need some help with the lighting issues Im having. To get the brightness I want things get over exposed. Anyways, I would love some input here.

I'm assuming you were taking those photos in interiors.
If that's the case, you're way better off buying an electronic studio lighting system.
Don't get scared, there are quite a few at very reasonable prices and you won't believe the improvement.
I suggest getting the power unit and two strobes (with umbrellas).
You can always add on later if you need it.
It's also easy to use, so no worries there either.
Hope that helped.
