Were you lucky enough to receive a fancy new DSLR camera for Christmas? Or have you heard any of your friends bragging about getting one on Facebook? Maybe you’ve had a camera for years that has more settings than you’ve cared to explore?
Whatever your situation, now you have a solution! I’ll be teaching classes all about how to get out of auto mode on your camera very soon, in both Pace and Ft. Walton Beach!

You’ll learn how to…

Give portraits that creamy, out-of-focus background

Freeze action instead of getting just a blur

Frame portraits for effective indoor and outdoor shooting

And more! While I have several things that are a “must” to discuss, my main goal is to answer all your questions and make sure you’re 100% more comfortable with that marvelous mechanical beauty that has the ability to capture gorgeous family memories! Don’t dread the other modes besides auto on your camera; use them, embrace them, RELISH them! I promise you’ll love your photos so much more.

Note: this will not be a pet-oriented event. Although you know dogs are my favorite subject to photograph, and photos of them will likely serve as many in-class examples, the principles you learn will be for general photography and applicable to any subject.

Class details:
~ Cost for attending: $59
~ Dates: attendees will vote on their preferences, but either the afternoon of Sunday the 22nd or a weekday evening.
~ Length of class: 2 hours, give or take. Really, just as long as everyone wants to keep learning!
~ Wine and chocolate will be present. Because I can’t think of a good reason why not.
~ A minimum of at least 4 people must attend for class to occur – and there is a maximum of 8! So… tell a friend, but hurry! (If you come AND bring a friend with you, I might have an extra surprise for you…)
~ If you don’t feel like you learned your money’s worth of information and handy tips, I’ll give you a refund. Seriously.

How to reserve your spot:
~ Call 850-255-0903
~ Email allison@allisonshamrell.com
~ Do either one of the above, but do it by Tuesday, January 10th!

I really hope you consider making time in your schedule for this class. Learning a new skill doesn’t have to be incredibly difficult, and this particular skill is incredibly useful. You can take pictures that do more than document events – they’ll be photos that you’ll be proud of. I hope to hear from you soon!
