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.

When I look through the scrapbooks I make about/for the grandkids, I often realize that I, too, am the "missing-in-action"...not a good feeling! I

I have really been trying to make sure there are pics of me in our stories because my sister in law would never let anyone take her picture and she died suddenly and her girls had so few pics of her and I saw how that affected them. That made me realize how important it is to include yourself and not worry about how you look.

I would love to win a spot in Willette's class. I am only in a handful of pics with my kids. I try to hand my camera off to hubby sometimes but he just doesn't get the shots that I would and he gets frustrated when he has to take more than 1 shot because someones eyes were closed ,etc..

This sounds like a great class. I take almost all the pictures in my family so I'm rarely in them! And while my husband does occasionally take a good picture of me, often the ones I'm in are out of focus, have a finger over part of the shot or the light is bad because his hand covered the flash! So I hope I win! Another great giveaway! Thanks.
