Are you giving someone a shiny new digital SLR camera for Christmas? Plan to receive one? Still not sure how to use the one you were given last Christmas? Well, we’ve got you covered.

Now announcing the return of our ever-popular Winter Camera Camp!

If you have a digital SLR camera (Nikon D-3000, a Canon Digital Rebel, etc.), this class is for you.  It’s focused on using your camera and unlocking it to allow you to make the super-awesome pictures that you see in your mind.  We’ll teach you what your camera can and can’t do.  (Hint: It can’t wash dishes OR make your bed.)

We’ll spend both direct instruction time and shooting time, with breaks for snacks along the way.  This is a small-group intensive session, and we’re only allowing 8 people to maximize the individual attention each person gets. *Note, we’re taking reservations on a first come, first-served basis.

Who: 9 people with digital cameras

What: Making friends with your camera

When: February 2 and 3, 6:30 to 9:30 pm

February 4 from 10am to 12 pm

Cost: $240 (snacks and drinks provided)
