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.

Sounds like a great class. My camera is gathering dust. I need some motivation!

Although I'm always hesitant to scrapbook pictures of myself, I would love to learn more about taking self portraits! I've only ever tried the "photograph myself in a mirror" technique!
Thanks for a chance to win!

This would be a perfect class - I'm ALWAYS behind the camera and need to get myself feeling more comfortable in front of it.

I love the idea of this - I have asked my husband to grab the camera occasionally so that I can be in a few shots but it would be so liberating if I knew how to incorporate myself into things. Thanks for this great opportunity.
Happy weekend!

I love this class. I only images I have of myself are from my kids. Usually you can only see my chin and neck, If i'm lucky. Otherwise I am not quite sure what their aiming at.

Pick me! This class sounds like one I could really enjoy and make use of. I've played a little with self portraits on my own, but my knowledge is terribly limited.

Photography use to be one of my passions but over the last few years I have found myself taking the same old pictures year after year. This class would be a great way to get out of the photography funk I'm in.

I'm loosing the mojo for doing this, I always find it hard to capture whatever that is happening now.. Hope I can be in the class. TQ!

This is so great - after going through over 2000 slides of my grandpa's last year & having only a handful with him in them, I realized that my family would see the same thing when they go through our photos - no me?
I need to learn more about this - always willing to learn more!

What a great giveaway! My husband is deployed to Afghanistan and complains daily that I don't send him photos of myself. This class would be a great way to remedy that problem. Thanks!
