I can't believe that I am already planning things for 2010! It really makes me feel like 2009 is coming to an end faster than I want it to! These next few months will be a whirlwind for sure and I am hoping and striving to make the most of each day so I don't get lost in the hustle and bustle of it all! Thank goodness for cameras, scrapbooks and blogs that help me to document and record all that is going on! That way when January does come around and things slow down, I can go back and remember and enjoy a lot of those little moments that I know will fly by these next few months!
Anyway..... just popping in to let you know that I finally updated the buttons over on the sidebar. The current class was sold out weeks ago and I actually overfilled the class because it was my last one for this year and I had so many extra people wanting to get in. I guess you could say it is a super full class but we are having a lot of fun and as usual I am already impressed with the work the students are posting!
The next class will run from January 4th - February 13th. This will be the same format as the workshops I have taught this year and is geared for the beginner/intermediate. Registration is now open and you can use the button on the right.
I will definitely be teaching an advanced workshop next year as well and am currently working on the content for that. If you are interested, be sure to email me to get on the wait list. I am also looking for input on what things you would like covered, so feel free to shoot me an email with your input! The advanced workshop will not teach you how to shoot in manual and will assume that you are already comfortable with that. So, if you aren't there yet, keep practicing or be sure to take the beg/intermediate course first! I will announce the dates soon so keep checking back. I expect the first one to fill up quickly because the wait list is already quite long. (but don't worry... if you are on the wait list, you will get the first chance at registering before it goes live here on the blog)
I think that's it! As always, feel free to email me if you have any questions!

Hi Maggie,
I had a question about the beginner workshop--I have a point and shoot, but would like to get a Canon Rebel (when I scrape the money together!), and have really no experience in photography or editing. Would this class work for me? Is it taught with a particular camera?
Thanks!

I'm also interested in your advanced workshop info. Please add me to the list! Thanks.

I'm wondering if your classes are only live or can I be gone and then come back and pick up where I left off at? I'm going to Mexico on the 3rd of Feb. thru the 24th so I will miss 10 days, is this a self paced class or do I have to be on everyday.
Thanks
Michell

Hi Michell! They are not live. The lessons/assignments are emailed to you each week in PDF format so you are free to do them on your own timing and at your own pace. And yes, if you are gone for part of it, you can either take the lesson(s) with you to work on while you are gone, or you can catch up once you get back.
Thanks! M

Hi Maggie,
I am not sure if I am on the waiting list for the advanced workshop or not. If not, PLEASE put me on there! I am looking forward to taking it!

Hi Maggie -
I am interested in taking your class but have a few questions. I would be doing all the lessons in the later evening after work and on the weekends. However, if I have to travel for work or am just not able to complete the assignments in a given week, will the message boards be open/relevant for me if I'm late or catching up? Thanks so much in advance for your time. ~Maria

Hi Maggie -
Back again with one more question (thank so much in advance for you time!)
By any chance, does your beginner course go over lessons/tips for taking sports/action shots. I have 3 boys who play lots of sports and would love to learn how to take those kinds of pics well. Is that a concept for beginners or evern a separate concept at all (maybe it's just something I'll be able to do when I figure out how to take pictures in general??) LOL ~Maria

Hi Maggie - Not sure how else to contact you other than posting here (so sorry about all the posts)! Do you send out confirmation e-mails for Jan 4. class? What should I look out for in my in-box? I signed up a couple of weeks ago after my last post and other than the paypal confirm, I haven't received anything, so I wanted to check. Thanks and looking forward to your class in a few weeks! ~Maria

I just emailed you! Let me know if you have any more questions!

Hi Maggie, I signed up for your regular class but have not received any further instructions after the info document. I just wanted to make sure that you didn't send something and I missed it. Thanks!

Hi! So glad you emailed me. I dont have you on my list for some reason. I have had a few of the payment receipts not come through from paypal. Can you just forward me your receipt and I will get you all set!
Thanks!

I just sent you an email... let me know if you don't get it.

Hi Maggie. I was wondering if you touch on the use of reflectors and external flash in the beginner/intermediate class, or is it only in the advanced class? I've played around with the manual mode very little. I'm most interested in getting the correct exposure (I've been frustrated with my photos lately), getting a crisp photo, and sparkly eyes! Thank you and love all your photos!

I would love to get on the waiting list for the advance class. Thanks so much.
