Countdown to Relaunch: T-Minus 7 days! News + Sneaks!

Every day leading up to our relaunch next Wednesday, I’ll be giving a little sneakie peek of NEW stuff to come!

The first is one of my very favorites, and I just can’t keep it to myself any longer! Scrapbookers of every type have one major thing in common (okay, after our undying love of collecting supplies): We love photos! This announcement is for EVERYONE who owns a digital SLR camera and would like to learn how to use it to take better photos. We’re announcing three new instructor-led classes at JessicaSprague.com, and here’s the first!

Brand-New Class: Digital Photography with Candice Stringham

Coming exclusively to JessicaSprague.com in her first online class, the incredibly talented Candice Stringham will be teaching a 6-week, instructor-led digital photography class! Ah, I am so excited for this. Candice is a good friend of mine, an incredible photographer, and an amazing teacher. She has such a willingness to teach what she knows, and she’s looking forward to sharing her insights in her instructor-led photography class! More details to come when we launch the new site - you’ll see samples and a full course description, but here are some highlights:

• 6-week class with daily emails (5 days a week!)
  
• Will require a digital SLR camera - that’s right! You’ll learn how to switch it off of the green camera and onto Manual!
• Candice’s videos and step-by-step, personalized insruction
• Personal feedback for EACH student in the class
• Class size is limited!
• Class will run in June-July! Mark your calendar!

For a great introduction to Candice’s teaching style, take a look at these video clips she created for Shutterfly. They are AWESOME. :D

Yay! I've so been waiting for you to offer a photography course! :) I'm so excited!

[Lynn C.]

I can't wait and am hoping I get in this class-we just finished up the May photo a day and I am really getting to know my new camera but really really need Candices expertise to teach me so I can understand it better.

WOW !! I can't wait for this. It is EXACTLY what I need. It's the next best thing to the CPR that I can't afford :)) Hope I can get in it ! You are truly the best Jess :D

[LivE]

WOOOHOOOO!!! Candice rocks! :D

[Kris]

I am absolutely thrilled you guys are doing this!! I've taken all of your classes Jessica and LOVE the format. 2 months ago I finally broke down and bought my 1st SLR and I'm still scared of it! I cannot wait to start--how's tomorrow for you?

[Lisette]

I'm in.

[Jen]

I am soooooooo excited! I cannot wait to register!!! I was a bummed that I couldn't make the CPR in San Jose in August as it coincides with the 1st week of school (I teach, can't miss that). This totally takes the sting out of not being able to make it, so long as I can get into this class ;0)! I can't help but wonder also, do beta girls/guy get a jump on registration?????

[Kari Holt]

I think I'm going to cry from the excitement!!! Will it be offered again after June/July? I'll be out of town for almost 3 weeks during that time and don't want to miss out (since I'll be completely away from the compy for 2 of those weeks in HAWAII)!!

[gretchen]

when can we sigh up?

[Julie]

WooHoo! I'm very excited for this class. I just got my first DSLR for Mothers Day and would L O V E to learn how to use it! I'm worried about the limited class size & hope I'm in time when the sign ups start!!!

[Nicole]

I'm very interested in this class - I went to sign up and didn't see any options to do so - what do I need to do?

[Angel]

Is there a particular SLR that you would recommend getting? I have been looking, but I want to make sure I get a great camera. Any suggestions?
