From a mom who posted this comment yesterday in regards to our Documenting a Child’s Life workshop;
Looks like it was a blast! Wish I could get away and travel to one of the workshops, –won’t you PLEASE consider doing an online class (or series) by video like that!:) For some of us it’s all about that special time after the kids are in bed and we can learn things in our PJ’s at the computer! 
Love all the helpful tips, thanks bunches, Amanda
Great news Amanda, and all you other moms who visit our blog! Not only will we consider doing a DVD, we are in process of producing a DVD series just for you!!! YEAH!! I get close to a 100 emails a day from moms, photographers and clients who want to know more about taking better photos, and even though I wish I could have coffee with each of you, I just want you to know I’m listening, and this DVD series is for you!
I know some of you can’t travel the miles to attend one of our workshops, and with our speaking engagements, destination weddings, and life with two little ones, I can’t teach a workshop every month (as much as I’d love too!). So Brian and I thought it would be cool to put this information in a DVD series that would be created with a layout catering to moms/aspiring photographers and their busy schedules. So it’s really happening! I talked with the film guy and producer this week, and every thing keeps falling in place.
Release date will be April 1st 2007!!! (no fooling :))
(Few hints at what this first series will be like; the first DVD will be focused on framing/composition and my philosophy on documenting your children with photos, filled with sample shots and tons of exercises (we’ve got to have exercises since I used to be a high school English teacher! 
It’s for the woman who wants to take better photos whether they have a point and shoot or digital SLR. The second DVD (releasing at the same time) is for the woman who owns a digital SLR and wants to get off Automatic! It will focus on technical strategies made simple, explained from one mom to another. That’s all I can say for now! But I’m SUPER excited! Stay tuned for more details!)

That is so cool MeRa, its my birthday in April so I guess I know what I am going to ask for now lol.
Yeah! I’m so excited that you two posted your excitement! It’s so affirming that this project is the right thing to be doing!!!
Notice I posted a blog!! Yippeeee!! I have a 6 month old son! I’ve been on maternity leave from my 3rd grade classroom, and I’ve found my passion!!! Photography. I truly want to do this on the side, and stay home with my precious!
I love your tips, and I’m toooo excited about your new DVDs. Do you have an idea how much they will cost???
All the pics from my blog are from a point and shoot. I don’t have a DSLR yet, but I am saving.
You are an inspiration to me!!
This will be wonderful. Now I can post on all those scrapbook sites for people who were wondering how to get to the workshop that they don’t have to!!
So many of us need to have some time to let all the information soak in…this will be perfect.
Thanks,
Valerie
YAY! I have been trying to find ways to get my husband to agree to me flying out there (we live near Detroit) and now I don’t have to scheme anymore!
I have a 5 year old, a 2 1/2 year old, and an 8 month old so leaving them wouldn’t be easy.
You have just made my day!
I may not be a mom, but I’ve been following your blog pretty actively since just before the birth of my daughter 6 weeks ago. I really want to capture the life of my daughter and the interaction between her and her mother/my wife.
We live nowhere near you, so these DVDs are about the only way we could attend. The only thing I beg is that you don’t focus it solely on women to the exclusion of interested men. I’d love to be able to learn from you, too, so I can continue to improve my skills and capture more of this little beauty:
Ahh, it appears my Flickr HTML was stripped. Oh well…
How exciting! I came across your blog while visiting 2Peas. What incredible photos you take and your DVD sounds wonderful!
I have been lurking at your blog and envying those able to attend your workshops for some time now, wondering how I would ever be fortunate enough to be able to attend anything and learn from you.
I can hardly contain my excitement at the release of your DVD series!!!!!!
Thank you so much, Amanda, for taking the time out of your busy life to do this and share yourself with others!
I’ll be one of the first in line on April 1st ——– no fooling!
Congratulations! That is very exciting.

Hi Me Ra,
My name is Tasha Owen and I’m a photographer here in Tacoma. I have long admired your work and hear only wonderful things about you. I’m a horrible at getting out in the community,(something I am working on) I tend to get a little reclusive, but I have always wanted to say hi and hopefully get the opportunity to meet you sometime.
Your contribution to other women is so wonderful… keep up the great work. And… if you ever have a spare moment get in touch and lets meet.
Take care,
Tasha
