Heya! Did you hear? I'm hosting a workshop aimed at parents who want to capture fantastic photos of their kids! And folks, I am damn excited about it.Besides teaching you how to shoot in manual mode on your fancy cameras, I'm going to talk to you about light and composition and how to get the best possible candid images of your kids' childhoods. We're going to talk about the power of documentary photography vs all the selfies and posed images you might have, and we're going to talk about tips and tricks for photo storage and organization.Now, you should also know that I did a presale of this class over the weekend with those who subscribe to my newsletter. Do you subscribe? No? Because you should. Anyway, after that sale, there are only TWO SPOTS LEFT. So if you want to do this, get on the train!Here are the details!+ The workshop will be on Sunday, Jan 5 in my studio near Loring Park. It will start at 10 am and it won't last longer than four hours, I promise. There will be lunch. There will be coffee. It will be way more fun than those classes offered at the camera shop (I swear).+ This will be an intimate setting with loads of one-on-one time (only 2 spots are left, so sign up quick!). I want this to be personalized to you, and I want you to get the most out of our time together.+ I will teach you how your camera works, how natural light works and how to get the best composition for your photos. We will also talk a little bit about photo storage and organization, because I know that's a challenge for everyone (myself, included).+ The introductory cost is $150 (tell all your friends!). I will likely host more workshops like this later, but they will probably cost a little more.+ You will get an invitation after the class for a private facebook group where you can post work for feedback, and I will answer questions and give tips long after the workshop ends.+ If this class does not have room for all of your friends, or you'd like to make it a book club/wine club/mom's night out, get at me and I'll schedule something personal for groups of 6-8. I really want this to be casual and fun, and I'll even provide wine if you want!So if you're in and want to participate, reserve your spot here! And I'll see you on Jan 5!
