Sponsor Giveaways : Willette Designs
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.

What an awesome giveaway! Even though my camera is a permanent attachment to my hand I find I never take them of myself. Thanks!

I've started making sure I get in pictures now, but I'd love ideas on how to take better photos and how to incorporate them into stories about me. This class sounds great. Thanks.

Wow, this looks like a really fantastic class. Ever since my first Week in the Life project, I have worked harder to get myself into more of our family photos---but I still feel like I am just not getting the shots I wish I had. And I am often too hesitant to ask someone else to shoot (besides the fact that even my family members don't know how to use my camera). I'd love to be a little more motivated and encouraged and knowledgable by taking a class like this!

This sounds perfect for me. I have the same situation of taking 1000's of pictures and being in about a handful of them. Someday when I am not around I am sure my kids will be sad to have no photos of me. I know I have to make a better effort and would love this class to give me the inspiration to do so.

I've never heard of Willette before, but this class looks great. Does it also come with tips on having beautiful hair like hers?
