Big announcements for all of you still considering the Discovery Workshop this May!
Rick, Garrett and myself had a great phone conference a few days ago and made some exciting decisions.
First, we talked about how the economy has affected everyone. We looked at our numbers and found a way to tighten things up and keep the workshop price at the Early Bird Discount! This means we will NOT be raising the workshop price! The workshop tuition will stay at $1249 to help all of you who are waiting for your tax refunds. Yes, I got your sweet, sincere emails, and we hope this new decision helps. Our heart is to inspire all of you, especially with the heaviness of the economy. Never has there been a better time to get yourself filled up and refreshed.
The other big news is that we restructured the first day of the workshop. It’s still going to be a wonderfully rich day about Discovering the Artist Within (I can’t wait for you to experience what we’ve put together!). BUT, we have found a way to maximize the time that day even more to do special Focus Groups at the end of the day!
What’s a Focus Group? Basically, we are going to have six different small groups (ranging from 3-5 people). Each group will range in topics from Marketing (where I critique your website or blog and offer helpful marketing strategies), The Mechanics of Your Camera, Post Process Help, How to Technically Capture Beautiful Back Lit Photos, etc. The team figured out how to carve out 2 1/2 hrs. for these small groups so we could have you rotate and hit all topics. This way you get all your questions answered. AND, you feel ready for getting some great shots with our awesome models on Saturday and Sunday!
We’re really excited about fitting Focus Groups in to the first day. But we’re most excited about finding a way to keep the registration price down for you!
Now, one more thing!
I was looking at the names of those already signed up, and I noticed that many of you have not even met Rick Chapman or Garrett Burdick! We’re going to have them post a blog so you can get to know them better. But for now, check out their websites by clicking on their names!

How wonderfully generous of you guys! This really is exciting! It opens that door of possibilities just that much more…I just need to book a few more shoots and I might be able to make this happen! Yeah! 🙂
Oh MeRa..those additions sound wonderful, exactly what I need. I too hope that I can get my ducks in a row and figure out some way to make it happen. I will be so sad to miss it.

This just keeps getting better and better!!! The Focus Groups sound so exciting and they are going to touch on subjects that Chelsie and I are struggling with right now! And the best part is we don’t have to choose just one, we get to experience all of them!!! Can’t Wait!!! What a wonderful idea!
