Hi again! My 9th class on Surreal Ghost Portraits went live a week before Halloween. I wanted to get it out sooner but this month (family picture season) has been absolute mayhem.
Ghost Photography with Photoshop - image 1 - student project So far in my first week I've gotten 20 students and I think my momentum from my 3 consistent classes in a row has helped with that. (I also think my ghost class reaches more people than my newborn class which hasn't had as much success right off the bat despite being featured for awhile on the photography sub page.)

I'm super passionate about this class and its really easy if you've got photoshop and a tripod! I'd love it if you checked it out :) http://skl.sh/2wr4yHm

Guys I'm so stoked about my new class on Lifestyle Newborn photography! This is my 8th class and after a summer of watching my numbers gradually sink I'm finally starting to see some real momentum! This month (September) has been my most successful month on the platform and I'm elated to have finally broken that 10,000 minutes watched/month milestone! My lightbox class from the very beginning was featured in an email blast and it did incredible things for my channel.
If you've taken the time to sit through any of my classes, THANK YOU! Seriously! This has been so rewarding for me
Anyway, newborn pics --> http://skl.sh/2wSMNk7

My 7th class is about utilizing objects and surfaces in your home and creating effective, beautiful art portraits. The class project is to photograph delicious close-ups of fruit!

Ghost Photography with Photoshop - image 7 - student project This class is great for photographers, instagrammers, food bloggers, or anyone wanting to warm up their camera skills.

This class is one of my longest so far. I typically try to go for short easily-digestible classes but thought I'd give a longer more in-depth class a try. Instead of running through 1 or 2 setups, I show 4! I decided to show my entire process as I go through a shoot as well as a thorough edit sequence.

If this project interests you, I'd love to see you in class!

My 6th class is about creating lens flares and using copper pipes to make the "Ring of Fire"
I'm really excited for this class, I've been obsessed with these techniques as I've seen them roll through my fb feed. I'm running a giveaway for a $20 Amazon gift card to be randomly awarded to one lucky person who posts a Lens Flare photo in the project section of this class before July! I'm hoping this giveaway will help students get excited to take pictures and share with everyone.
Here's my class if you wanna take a look! : http://skl.sh/2rx3Whk

I'm so excited! I reached my personal goal of publishing 5 Skillshare classes! This photography class is a great sister-course to my Shutter Speed class I published a couple months ago.

This class dives into the nitty gritty of Aperture. I go through Depth of Field, Bokeh, f/stops, and lenses!

If you wanna hone your Manual Mode photography skills, take a look!

ETA: I published my class and I'm thrilled with how it turned out. It is free for 2 days and then Premium after that. I've shared my link to Facebook to encourage my friends to take a look and then I've also texted my family about it so they can watch too :)

I have to admit I hit a huge roadblock when I saw that Skillshare published a quick (really great) DIY video for making a lightbox last week. I had just finished filming and I was really excited to get my class up when I saw that video in my FB feed! After wrestling with it for a few days I realized that my class still had a ton of extra tips and dives deeper into the process for students who want more guidance as well as ways to customize your box to suit your needs. I realized there was still a place for my perspective here so I decided to go ahead with it as originally planned.

That being said I still feel just a little weird about the whole situation but I finished my intro video and I'm really happy with it. It is so much better than my first class! My audio improved, my camera presence was a bit better and the class is just packed with tons of information.

Here's a link to my intro on youtube

And Here's a link to my Galaxy Shoe class

Here's a link to my Channel Plan

My channel theme isn't set yet. I'm thinking craft related videos from apparel and sewing to yarn and knits, but I also would like to teach more photography related courses. I'll probably put up a variety of different courses and then hone in on the class types that receive the best feedback. But I'm open to suggestions!

ALSO if you watched my intro on youtube, does it seem quiet or is it a good volume?
