Family Gossip and Workshops & Speaking07 Aug 2007 10:50 am

I first have to say I just love all of you ladies!! Sue C. posted my favorite comment/question ever yesterday! I had said on a previous comment that for the beginner you’ll want a Digital SLR (or borrow one of mine). Sue posted and asked what a Digital Sir is. And Sue, your innocence in that question just made my day! :) You have no idea! I’m glad your son filled you in, but you and your question are the reason why i love my girls-only beginner workshops! I had all those same questions five years ago! In one of the workshops, a mom asked me what Shutterture was. She had combined the words Aperture and Shutter Speed, and we all got the best laugh! Laughing with women and growing together–few things in life are that great!

I feel like we’re on a countdown for tomorrow’s big announcement of dates! I’m so excited I can hardly stand it! You’ll hopefully see a photo of the chic place where we’re going to hold it, and you’ll for sure see a video trailer from past workshops! It’s going to be fun!! I will also detail the difference between the beginner and the advanced one, so you can see where you fit in the mix! But I also decided last night to have “refresher spaces” set aside for those of you women who have attended a already and need a refresher. You can join us again for half the price, actually less than half, $200. BUT, you have to help the newbie next to you if you know the answer. :)

Okay, check this out! Pascaline has fallen in love with cameras this summer! I caught her doing a self portrait!

And then yesterday morning, I found her on the steps. She had Blaze’s Superman pj’s on, and she was actually letting Blaze rest on her! I just about died!

These are definitely in the running for my favorite images of the summer!

And thanks for all the wonderful comments about the section’s write up! It was such a wonderful story, I’m still blown away!

    Hi Me Ra!
    I am laughing so hard right now. I am glad I could make your day. My son was dying when I sent that question!
    Love the pictures of your kids. What a great shot of Pascaline’s self portait sitting. Looking forward to hearing more about the workshop.
    Love,
    Sue

    Hi Me Ra,
    Just had to let you know that I’ve become a new reader of your blog and web site! My sister, who lives in Tacoma (I also have a brother there), emailed me Dan’s article.
    I’ve learned so much in just a few days about blogging, photography, life, etc. I was on the fence about attending a Bambi/Jerry workshop this Friday but reading about you in the article helped me decide! I want to break out of my boring traditional style and need some inspiration!
    Thanks so much for all the photographer tips you provide! They are great! If I’m ever out your way, I’d love to attend a workshop and I hope you’ll have a workshop in the New England area soon.

    I meant to let you know that I’m a photographer from Massachusetts!
