GIVEAWAY : Three people will receive a spot in willette's new fun, laid-back online class Finding Your Joy - Capturing Your Life Through Photos.

When you really look at all the photos you have of your family, how many photos are there of YOU?  I discovered after printing my family photos for the year, that I was only in a handful of photos out of over 1000 photos. Finding YOUR joy is my personal quest to better document my own life (and my quest to help you do the same). I would hate for my children to see all of our family photos and wonder where I was (when in actuality I was there…I was just behind the camera). This three week online e-journey will help you explore how to capture your own life in photos and how to escape from always being behind the camera.

Class begins September 7, 2010, and the lessons are emailed once a week and are presented on a private class forum website. Along with weekly lessons are free template downloads, video tutorials and photoshop and photoshop elements video tutorials. The class is a do-it-at-your-own-pace class….you can download the materials and do them at a time convenient to you. Along with the forum is an online photo gallery to share your assignments if you choose (but sharing is not a requirement).
 
The class fee is $45. To register visit here. To learn more, and to find out about willette’s wildly successful Finding the Joy (upon which this mini class is designed) visit here. Please note that no discounts may be used for this or any workshops. Visit willette on the web at http://willettedesigns.com/.

Recommended class materials include: a camera (any kind), a photo editing program such as photoshop or photoshop elements, a tripod (recommended but not required), and a desire to capture yourself and your life with your camera. For those who sign up, welcome packets will be emailed by September 1, 2010 with pre-homework.

    I HAVE been trying to do more self-portraits, but I'm almost never happy with how they turn out, so this is the perfect class for me. Also, school is about to start, so I'll be spending a lot of time on my students; it'll be nice to have a dedicated way to spend time on myself! Thanks for the cool giveaway!

    Thanks for the great giveaway! This is definitely one area where I am lacking with my photos. My three year old daughter asked recently while looking at photos of last year's beach vacation on our digital frame, "did you go with us, Mommy?". Very sad, but true!

    I can totally identify with this! I'm always nagging my husband that he needs to take the camera more often so my daughter doesn't think she was raised by a single dad! Thanks for the giveaway!

    Wowzers, would love one of those spots as I've felt a strong need to begin capturing 'me', too.

    This could be coming at a great time for me. I just had a baby and have realized that I take tons of photos of him and my hubby, but not many of myself.

    I would love to receive this give away. My camera never leaves my side but you would never know from my pictures that it was me by it's side 24/7.

    How true I was looking at our library of photo's and not only are there just a hand full of me but I admit to deleting some because I felt I didn't make the grade too fat,too old no make up any excuse. This class would be a gift,not only to me now but for the future. Fingers crossed!
