How do I use my DSLR camera!? & a Photo by Emilie, session

๐
Check out how AMAZING they turned out!
If you were wondering… yes, I was obsessed with that cute yellow chair and suitcase. I had never really used “props” before, and it was really fun to see how Emilie positioned each of my little chicks to get the best shots possible! Now I’m ready for balloons, vintage chairs, and whatever else I can find for photo shoots! It’s all so addicting!
So, one of my #1 questions asked on the blog is…
“How did you learn to use your DSLR camera better?”
Well, the simple answer… Emilie taught me! You can read more about that post here.
If you want to learn how to use your manual camera settings better, or just hone in on your positioning, lighting, or editing skills… Emilie’s got a class for ALL of that! ๐
Emilie is offering a Salt Lake City photography workshop on
Saturday, September 24th from 9am – 1pm.
If you don’t live in the area, she also offers 1 on 1 classes online!
And also, to celebrate the arrival of Emilie’s adorable new baby girl, she is offering a 25% discount on all of her classes! Just enter the coupon code “penelope” when booking your session.

I took one of Emilie's classes right before she had her baby. She was so sweet and wonderful. I learned a lot.
After my baby comes (literally any day now) I want to take one of her portrait photography classes. She's awesome.

I am soooooo trying to get my husband to get me a DSLR for Christmas ๐ So far he's not going with it (and I'm kinda scared how hard it'll be to learn – I am far away from SLC!) but I still have 4 months, right? ๐
