“Your photography workshop changed my relationship between photography and my business. I knew I loved taking photos, but I just couldn't put that into the context of my business until taking your class! ”
- Julie Romano, Sweet Sparrow Yarns (Julie attended an early version of this workshop before it was fully fleshed out)This is meant for beginners or those who would like to improve their skills. If you want to learn to take better pictures with the gear you already have, this is a good choice. It probably isn't going to be a good fit for those who want to become professionals or use high-end tools.

At least six months. While I can't guarantee the hosting platform will be around forever or that I won't want to replace these early recordings with something more polished in the future, a six-month window is a pretty good amount of time.
Yes. Because I want to be able to give each person individual attention, I'm capping enrollment at just 20 people. Once the course fills up, it's full until I offer it again.
