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.

oh goodness.... this would be wonderful.... I don't have nearly enough pictures of myself with my babies. It's terrible. In my son's first year of life- we have 3 or 4 pictures together! I have made it a goal to start taking more of he & I together and this would help get me started!

What an awesome concept! I have recently found out I was adopted and have been starting to put together an album for myself and my life. I have found in recent years, I am forever behind the camera and rarely in front. This sounds perfect!!

That's such a great idea! I was at a wedding this weekend and I took 650 photos and I was in 4 of them... was I really even at the wedding? Always ready to learn more!

Yes Please! I am absolutely horrendous at getting photos of myself, and am trying to improve (terrified something happens to me and then the kids don't even have a recent snapshot!) but it it hard work...I would love some help to find the joy and grace in taking self portraits that reflect me *as I am*...that don't look awful! Thanks!
