Hey Guys! Sorry I've been absent a lot lately. January is always just a strange time of year for me. Its when our photo sessions are slower, people are slower in general, staying in and out of the cold weather and playing with their Christmas presents!

(Like me, with my Nintendo DS playing Big Brain Academy. It challenges your brain every day to get smarter and faster with some challenging mind games. I love it!

and also sending orders to the lab. and getting caught up with last years work and doing a few photo shoots. But I am finding that I actually have some time on my hands lately!

(Yes, Ive even cleaned out all my dresser drawers and still a little bored.)

But the BIG NEWS HERE is that I have had SO many people over the years ask me to teach them photography. Ive always been too busy and have had to decline.

I used to teach Photography classes when I lived in Japan. I would have a class of 30-35 students and we met every Saturday from 9 am-2 pm for 6 weeks.

We went to the Japanese Botanical Gardens, and I taught them how to use their SLRS with a lot of attention on f stops, aperture shutter speeds, depth of field, seeing light freezing motion, blurring motion etc.

It was a lot of fun and hard work (I gave it up when I was pregnant with my son as it was so bloody hot in Okinawa Japan in the Summer.)

So I've been thinking, since I have had so many calls lately about it and a lot of people got SLR Cameras for Christmas and don't have a clue how to use them.

So after much soul searching and thinking about it, I am going to start offering one on one classes! A DAY LONG CLASS PRIVATE INSTRUCTION WITH A MASTER CRAFTSMAN PHOTOGRAPHER!

These classes will be for one day only and be One on One. So you get my undivided attention. So bring your SLR (Single Lens Reflex) this is the type of camera that the lenses come off, usually made by Olympus, Canon, Nikon, Fuji, Sony, Mamiya, Hassleblad etc...)

I will have an application on line soon, or you can submit an email now if you are interested. Below is the information. Also the good news, is that For me to close my studio for a day and not accept any photo shoots would cost me around $1000, to 1800.00 per day, but I'm offering these classes at the low price of $499.00! And you only are required to pay half when you schedule your day.!) (We take all major credit cards) So lets hear from you.

Call 940-761-5111 or shoot me an email to PDixie@sw.rr.com and let me know you are interested. Ill send back the dates that I am available. Also If you want to go on a wedding with me (I have a few this year) The price is the same and you can hang out with me at a wedding and learn my tricks of the trade for this too!) (I don't care if you bring your camera and shoot along side me for some shots too.)

So hope to hear from you soon by the way, You must email me within 2 weeks to get this special price. You can have your classes anytime, but you must email me and schedule your date within the next 2 weeks. My calendar will start filling up with photo sessions once Spring arrives (March) and I wont have a lot of time, so schedule your date now before I get really super busy.)

You have until FEB 6th (Next Friday) at Midnight to schedule and pay your deposit) and then its closed after that. 50% deposit required

Have a blessed Sunday!
