Hey Everyone,

Come out and join us this Tuesday the 14th.  

Here is the synopsis from Tammy and Kevin.

Tammy and Kevin Bevins will demo off camera lighting with strobes and video lights in a short photo shoot at the beginning of the meeting.  We'll then talk about how we use creative posing and lighting to flatter our clients and how to get candid looking photos through directed posing....

Lamarr Williamson School

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you know what an awesome time we all had at the school in Myrtle Beach last week.

I took Cheri MacCallum's class on Painter. This was my first "school" experience and I'll definitely go again. The teacher to student ratio was great.

Another great benefit was that we actually got to paint our own images in addition to the ones we painted for instruction.

At the end of the week, we got to print one of our own on canvas (thanks to Ron and Showcase in Atlanta!) and Cheri taught us how to stretch our canvases onto a stretcher frame.

It was so much fun to bring back to the studio a finished painted image - ready to sell!

Here is one of our images I painted as a watercolor.
