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.

Another awesome giveaway! I would love to take this class because I realized a few months ago that my children have very little by which to remember me at the moment.

I think this is something all us moms struggle with...making sure we're in front of the camera too. Sounds like the perfect give away in many ways. Count me in.

Ali,
I would so love this. I am always taking pictures of my kids, my fantastic hubbie, niece's and nephews and their kids, along with the picture's of around the house, etc. But I "NEED" to find time for me. I do not want to be a wall that listens a few years from now. Where are picture's of Mom, Nana, Aunt?? Thank you soooooo much for offering this great class.

I'm forever trying to make sure I get at least one photo of myself. It's quite a challenge sometimes. Especially when you are known to be "the photo taker". Great giveaway!

We just came back from a trip to Yosemite, I got wonderful pictures but my kids will probably wonder if I was there.

I looooove Willette Photography and have a been a follower of theirs for quite a while. I would really love to win a spot in this class. It sounds fabulous. Like most people, i am guilty of taking all our photos and not really being in them or documenting my own life and the things i enjoy. Great giveaway Ali!!
