Here’s the deal.

You need to put March 7th on your calendar right now. Seriously. Kelly Parnell (Photos by Kelly) and I are busting at the seams with excitement!!  If you aren’t sure what a shootout is….Let me fill you in on the juicy details. A shootout provides hands on learning and is specifically geared towards shooting. Because let’s be honest…Hands on learning is THE best way to learn. Whether you are a professional photographer wanting to expand your portfolio, a photographer just starting out and in search of direction and guidance or a mom with a camera who just wants to take better pictures….You will walk away at the end of the day seeing photography in a whole new light and having made new friends.

 

Make it Click: Photography Shootout is unlike most shootouts. Make it Click is 5 hours long in duration…..with 2 hours dedicated classroom time and the remaining 3 dedicated to shooting.  When you attend our shootout, you will get to photograph 4 separate genres! Seriously…..FOUR! You will get the opportunity to experience and photograph a senior session, a glam “stylized” child session, a lifestyle family session (with baby) and a lifestyle toddler session. Everything you photograph, you can use in your portfolio, for advertising purposes and on your website/blog. We simply ask that you do not sell the images or submit the shootout images for publication. We also ask that you give credit to any vendors associated with the shootout as well.

 

AND because we love you guys SO much….We want you to send us your top 4 pictures from the shootout and we will provide you with a constructive critique. Along with the image critique, you will receive access to a private Facebook group for continued growth and support in a safe, learning environment.

 

During the Classroom time:

*Discussions on social media

*Client Interaction

*Workflow of session and post session(not editing)

*Specifics on gear and what to use when

 

During the Shootout:

*We will be shooting on beautiful land that features paths, an open field, and lots of woods. For the indoors portion of the shootout, we will be shooting in a huge bathroom with stunning natural light.

*Learn tips and tricks on working in varying light conditions (both indoor and outdoor shoots provided).

*Learn how to effectively give instruction to your clients on posing and how to get that true emotion from your clients.

*Small shooting groups to give you ample time during each session and lots of one on one instruction.

 

You will need to bring:

Your camera
Fully Charged Batteries
SD or CF memory cards
Lens (We highly recommend a lens with a low aperture)
