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.

Love the name of the class...finding your joy. I've been taking self-portraits of myself. Don't always like the look but I need to be who I am. Congrats on your new home...hope the unpacking, settling in and making your home yours happens soon.

Oh, this sounds like the perfect way to push myself into actually being in front of the camera instead of behind it. Thanks for the giveaway.

What a great class. One of my goals this year was to put me in the photos more. I could really use this class to make that goal come true!

I would love to win a spot in this class. Sometimes I need a gentle reminder to hand the camera off to someone else!

This is something I truly need. My children are always commenting on the fact that there are so very very few pictures of ME in all the THOUSANDS of shots we take! (sadly, the only picture my dear sweet husband has of me in his wallet is my high school photo...taken 40 years ago!!) I don't like having my picture taken but I know that when I'm *gone* my children will treasure the few they have. Thanks for the chance to win!!

This class sounds fantastic! I'll likely sign up whether I win or not. I definitely need more photos of me for my girls to have later in life.
