Who wants to learn to take better pictures?

Do you have a camera with all kinds of fancy buttons and functions and don't know what half of them do? Would you like to know what all those number readings on your camera mean, and how to properly set those numbers to get the type of exposure you are looking for? Do you desire to improve your photography skills and consistently take better pictures?

Join Elizabeth Bailey and Amy Nabors as we guide you through a series of classes aimed to help you feel more comfortable with your camera and show you how to take photographs that will WOW your family and friends.

This 4 month series will begin on January 31 at 2:00-4:00 p.m. at ScrapEtc off of Valleydale Road. The cost for each class will be $20. The first class we will focus on basic rules of composition. You will consider ways of looking at your subject that you never thought of before. We will also be available for a question and answer period. This class is suitable for both point and shoot as well as digital SLR camera users.

Elizabeth and Amy are neither "Trained Professional", but we want to share with you how we learned, using the same cameras many of you own, to get Professional results.

Items to bring to class:
Camera(s) and lenses that you use
Camera manuals
Burning questions you would like to ask the "experts"

Upcoming Classes will include
February--Lighting with Elizabeth (Point and shoot & DSLR)
March--Manual modes with Amy (DSLR)
April--Manual modes with Amy (DSLR)

Here is a note from Lucy, the store owner:
We want to get this class out to more than just scrapbookers. If you have a friend that doesn't scrapbook, but has a camera and wants to learn more. Bring them and get $5 off your class!
