Since the weather is getting cooler each week, and the fall color is arriving early, we're moving ahead to our portrait classes and postponing the "motion" class for later. We are also adding an additional portrait night, with week 1 being outdoor portraits with a reflector, and week 2 by window light, followed by group/family portraits. This will make the family portraits, hopefully, in the prime of fall color.
We will have 2 sessions of outdoor portraits, our regular Tuesday evening at 6:30, and an added Thursday morning at 9:30, both held at Hamilton Town Center. It provides a variety of backgrounds/props, with nice potted plants, architecture, etc.. The Tuesday evening class will meet at the side of Dick's Sporting Goods--between the movie theater and Dick's. I'll park with the front of my car facing Dick's, right by the store. I have some "models" coming to help us Tuesday night--and we can also use eachother as needed.
The daytime group will meet at the playground in Hamilton Town Center. This option should help shrink our total numbers for these classes. I feel badly that I haven't been available to help or answer as many questions as some of you may have had. We'll talk about portraits and demonstrate things at the playground, using the kids as our models--maybe moms too, so be ready!
We will be using reflectors. Wear a white shirt, if you can, and also bring something to reflect with. I purchased some foam boards at the dollar store if you'd like to buy one from me, bring your dollar and let me know in case I need to pick up more. They sell them at Walmart for almost $3, or you can use anything white, flat, and easy to move--a white gift box lid, campaign yard sign that's white on back, cardboard covered with white paper.
Please spread the word if you know of anyone that doesn't check their email. Thanks! You are all doing an amazing job! Thanks for your dedication and enthusiasm.
