I'm excited to announce today the seed of a new idea or DREAM that I'm pursuing.  As most of you know, I am an artist with a camera and I'm passionate about creating captivating composites that tell a story.  People have always asked me, 'How do you do that?' or 'Why don't my images look like yours?' and because I'm self taught, I never thought teaching was even a possibility.  I was so wrong!!  

 

After a few photog friends (you know who you are, wink) encouraged me to offer my first course on composites,  I realized that 3 quick lessons wouldn't even scratch the surface in helping others achieve their best results.  It took me years of incorporating what I was taught in art school and learning from some of the best in the photography industry.  Then I practiced.....and practiced a whole lot more!!  Heck, I'm still practicing and learning!  

 

So, here's my idea -->  I'm creating a monthly membership to a community called: The ART of Storytelling where I envision sharing the steps I take to create my composites: from coming up with a theme, scouting locations, piecing things together in photoshop and so much more.  I see so many composites and edits out there that just look fake and fall flat but with a little more knowledge and practice these same images could be amazing! Whether you are a beginner or more advanced with your skills, there is always room for improvement. I see this growing into an amazing creative community that supports and inspires one another while we learn to be better visual storytellers and artists.

Artistically yours,
