Just a quick note to announce the new look and new branding of Angie Seaman Photography. I spent a great deal of time with my web designer over the past couple of weeks re-vamping my website, blog, twitter page and adding a new facebook fan page to the Angie Seaman Photography collection. I poured my heart and soul into this new look so I hope all of you like it.
I wanted a fresh and colorful new look that represented my style. Crystal, my web gal, did a phenomenal job, (as always) in regard to bringing my visions to life. Thanks Crystal. I love ya girl!
Feel free to drop by our new facebook fan page and "like" our page. I'll be doing a big contest there starting tomorrow with a FAB give-a-way. Jump in on the fun. We'd love to have ya.
As a side note and FYI...I'm also offering a $100 print credit included in any session fee when you book a shoot with me. That is a limited time offer in celebration of the new branding so get in on it while the gettin' is good. Feel free to email me directly at Angie@AngieSeamanPhotography.com with any questions.
Lastly, this is the last week to sign up for my online beginner photography class and my online beginner photoshop class. If you'd like to register for either one of those classes, you can do so by going HERE and clicking on the "classes" page. Good times! Until the next post, have a ROCKIN' week! Much love, Angie
PS...Blogger has been giving me fits lately. My account is acting up and not letting me publish posts here on the blog. I've had to go to alternative measures to get it posted. I'm hoping they get this glitch fixed soon but blogger never seems to fix anything fast. Boo! I'm also missing blog comments that come through. Some of you have emailed me asking if I got your comment here on the blog and apparently I'm not getting all of them. Another BOO~! Again, I'm hoping all of these issues receive some attention quickly. In the meantime, thank you for your patience. Love you guys! :)
As many of you know, my next online beginner photography class starts next Saturday, May 1st. I currently have three openings left for the class. The class has always sold out in the past so I fully anticipate that it will repeat history and do the same with this one as well. My real reason for this reminder though is because my schedule is fixing to change drastically in the coming months. A surprise that I wasn't planning for has sprung itself and therefore that surprise is going to alter my "normal" schedule as I once knew it. With that said, this May 1st class will most likely be my last class for a while. I would like to be able to say that I will continue on with a July 1st class as originally planned but I'm confident that won't be happening now. We will also be traveling the first of July which makes this option even more impossible. So...if you are at all interested in taking this online course for beginners, I would highly recommend that you sign up for the May class if your schedule and your budget shall allow it. I cannot guarantee when I'll be offering another class at this time. Because of that, I would hate for anyone to miss out on this one. I hope and pray that all goes well and that I'll be able to continue a somewhat "normal" schedule in the near future. When I'm able to confirm that, I'll eventually post new dates for new classes. Until then, the May 1st class will be my last one for a bit.
If you aren't familiar with my class that is being offered, feel free to click HERE for details. It is a great way to learn the basics of photography as well as the key to success with your camera. If you are a beginner, this class is for you. :)
To all of my past students, these classes were only possible because of the faith you put in me as your instructor. I cannot find the words or the way in which to thank you enough for the support you guys have all given me thru this endeavor. I'm so very honored to have been able to work with each of you thru all of these classes. For my past students, I am hoping to plan a "Critiquing and post-editing" class in the near future. If you have taken my classes before, you might have heard us mention this class as a future option. This particular class is in high demand and many of you are banging down my door to sign up for it. I continue to get emails on a weekly basis requesting it. The details are still being ironed out but I'm ready to offer it just as soon as I can confirm what life is going to be like in my next few months ahead. Therefore, stay tuned. It is coming. God just threw me a surprise curve -ball and I'm attempting to catch it successfully. Once caught, I'll be able to start scheduling some things again. :)
Just wanted to pop on and remind everyone that the next Angie Seaman online beginner photography class starts March 1st. I just finished up a class with some impressive and wonderful students this week and I'm once again blessed beyond belief for the opportunity to have worked with each of them and am now blessed by their friendships. Teaching these classes has been an amazing experience for me and one that I love more and more with every class that starts and finishes. Not only am I teaching them but they are teaching me as well. With each session, I learn more and more about photography because I have incredibly passionate beginners who challenge me to increase my knowledge on the subject. I can't thank them enough for that. Here are what a few of the students from this most recent class had to say about their experience in the "Angie Seaman Photography course... "I came into this class a true beginner. I never read the manual for my Camera because I was so excited to start taking pictures of my newborn. I really only knew how to shoot in basic auto mode and I was pretty content with my pictures, but wanted them to be better and wanted myself to be better. I truly believe I was meant to take this class because I randomly stumbled across Angie's blog and saw the class info and thought I better sign up immediately! I have learned a ton in this class! Angie is such an amazing teacher and I love being taught by someone who is passionate about the subject they are teaching. You can tell Angie is so passionate about photography and it was really great to learn from her. She was there to answer any and all questions throughout the day and night (for us west coasters). I would take a class from Angie again in a heartbeat and feel so blessed that I was able to learn from her. If you are looking for someone who genuinely cares about your success in learning more about your camera and photography, this class is for you! Thank you so much Angie for everything and I look forward to taking another class from you again soon! Sorry if this is really long, I could have even said more! Ha ha! Thanks for everything!" ~Ashley from San Marcos, California
"I came into this class probably knowing a bit more than the average beginner which made me a bit skeptical to sign up at first. Thankfully I did though! Despite me having owned my DSLR for about 2 years prior, I still simply didn't have the knowledge or the confidence needed to use it to its full potential. I was pleasantly surprised as I started reading into the week's lessons and realized I had been clueless about so many things; things that make all the difference in a great photo. I gained such amazing insight through Angie's class and no longer 'fear' all those letters on my camera's dial! With her class under my belt so to speak I am ready to pull forward and keep learning. (Hint: hoping you'll offer a 'next level up' class soon!)" ~Deanna from Annandale, Minnesota
"I met Angie at a photography workshop and fell in love with her personality and her photography skills, she definitely knows what she is doing! I was thrilled to receive this class as a Christmas present as I have wanted to learn from Angie ever since I met her. Her class answered so many of the questions that I have had about my camera! I was scared to shoot in anything other than automatic (auto mode). I've had my camera for 3 years and I've paid a lot of money for workshops that were way over my head claiming that they were for "beginners". Angie's class was just what I needed. I feel so much more confident in using my "whole" camera instead of just a few buttons. This class was a bargain!! Angie's knowledge is priceless!!! She is a great teacher! I would recommend this class to everyone I know! I'm sad to see the class end!" ~Leslie from Pinckney, Michigan
If you are ready for a basic, beginner, photography class...go HERE to sign up. Should you have any questions, please feel free to email me at Angie@AngieSeamanPhotography.com. All of the classes in the past have sold out. Don't wait...seats are filling up daily. We'd love to have you join us for this March 1st session. (Session runs for 4 weeks)
Blessings, Angie
PS...For those of you interested in the weekend photography workshop I'm offering for beginners this September, feel free to go HERE for more details. I've decided to offer a payment option for those interested in signing up now. I had many requests for split payments so I decided to set that up for those who wish to use that option. If you are one of those individuals, please contact me at the email address above for details. We'll be teaching by the beach here in Naples, Florida and learning photography under the palms. It's the first ever "We shoot people" tour hosted by Angie Seaman Photography. Along with a weekend get-a-way of fun and photography in the sun, you'll also be given a fun swag bag to boot. I've called in the troops and contacted some awesome sponsors for the event who will be providing some of the incredibly fun and all things photography goodies inside those swag bags. Good times~good times!
