Okay guys, exciting news!
Over the weekend the muse visited me. And she had a lot to say! I was taking a much needed siesta and an idea for a new class came to me, fully formed. I pulled out a notebook and could barely write fast enough to capture it. But minutes later, there it was.
It is for a Superhero Photo class. (online)
Would you like to take photos with me this summer?
When I thought about what I’d like to be doing this summer, I thought about getting out of my head and into my body. I thought of sunshine and adventure. I thought of joy and gratitude. I thought of using my hands and making things. I thought of creating.
My vision is that the class will be a new way into joy, into gratitude, into celebrating your life. You will come away with a fantastic collection of photos (for your blog, your albums, your family) while also cultivating a deep appreciation for your everyday life. Photography is a powerful way into gratitude for me, of being present and awake and looking for what is beautiful and interesting. It is an inspiring way to tell our stories.
We will do it together. And it will be fun. (No fancy photography experience necessary)
Leave a comment below or email me if this calls to you! (No pressure to sign up, just want to get a feel for interest)
P.S. I will be sharing all my secrets for taking great portraits. 😉
yes! yes! yes!
Absolutely!
YES!
Yes!
Yes!
Yes, please!
can i say: “gimme! gimme!”?
Yes!
oh yes, andrea. and just today jen lemen invited me to consider self-portraits as a healing process. maybe your class could help guide this journey, a radical new way for me to enter into joy, gratitude and celebration. love you and all of your offerings…yes.
YES!
Heck yes! Sounds like fun!
This is great… I was thinking that I needed to work more on my photography last week!
Yes–
I love it!!!!!!!!!!!! You’re awesome!
Sounds amazing!!
Would a fancy camera / lenses be required or would something like a Canon Powershot ELPH be ok?
Yes.
I would love this. I’ve taken a ton of photos in the last month and am bored by all of them — I need something new to shake up my style.
What a brilliant idea!
Yes, I think I’d love this!
Hi Andrea. I’m really curious about this! I don’t have any photography experience at all but I’d love to take more photos of my kids doing every day things. I’d love to work with you, too! 😉
very interested
sounds fantastic!
I’d love to!!
sounds super interesting!!!
YES!
Yes!!
Would love it! Just got a wonderful new camera and I’d love to take some nice pics.
me! count me in!
Yes! Sounds like tons of fun!
I have a nice-ish (non-DSLR) camera and am definitely a newbie—is that okay? Because I seriously just wrote in my journal that I want to learn to take better photos.
Yes, I’d love to. Maybe you could give a heads-up if the class would be a bit of a bummer for people without a spouse + kids. Some classes I’ve seen end up being very family-centric. Nothing wrong with that! lol. Just not quite my thing.
I would love this!
i’d love to do this! i’d need more info first – pricing, how intensive the class would be, etc. – i’m assuimg you’ll be sharing that later, though!
mostly i’m concerned about how time intensive it will be, though – almost 30 weeks pregnant, i’m starting to feel my body wanting more and more rest, stretching and sitting time, and less “moving around at top speed” time!
Definitely be interested!
So, not to sound like too much of a “fanboy” but this would be super amazing. I am a huge Shutter Sisters fan (got the book for my birthday, hooray!) and just started my own little 365 day photo project and 2 weeks into it I’m already running out of things to take pictures of. 🙂
Hells yeah! I’m in!!:)
I think this is a brilliant idea! I’m totally in, but it would have to be after the summer…hopefully you will be so exciting after doing the first one that you open it up for future registrations!! will we need to have a fancy camera or will any digital do?
Good luck, sounds very exciting!!
YES, YES, YES
I started taking more photos because of reading your blog. You tell such wonderful stories through your images and it would be an amazing experience to take this class from you.
Yes, please!
Yep, yes, hai, si, oui!
I am in the middle of some other photo classes, but I would really like to hear more. Especially looking for anything that helps me take photos I would not otherwise take (if that makes sense).
am definitely interested in hearing more!
I would love to… if the price was right. You are the one who got me to start taking pics of shoes and leaves 🙂 so I think it’s a great idea!
Would love to if I can fit it into my schedule. Keep me in the loop. Thanks!
i just might be into that.
Oh yes!
Interested!!!
Big YES!
Big Yes!
I would definitely be interested!
interested
Yup! Interested !
Yes, interested! 🙂
Definitely interested!
Yes! Interested!
Yes! (comment got lost?)
I would love this. I’m doing a road trip cross country with my camera and laptop. This would be perfect.
Yes!
Honestly-I was just wishing for an on line photography class.
I think I would love this…I have never taken a photo class and taking one with you would be wonderful. I would have to consider the price though.
Oh this sounds like the perfect way to find, have, and spread some joy, this summer!
Interested in learning more about this please!
I’m in!
Yes!
Totally!!!
I’m interested!
Am practicing saying Yes. So YES!
SO interested!!
Yes please.
I would love to hear more about it. I think I’m in!
Yes please! I have no photography experience but I want want want to learn about it. I don’t even have a camera at the moment but need to get one in the next month or so before my trip to the States and Europe in Aug/September. This class would be perfect!! chrs, Liv.
Yes, please!
Sounds awesome!
Yes, indeedy, do! Sounds fab!
I am definitely interested. I have been wanting to do a photography class, but with two little ones it’s hard to get out in the evenings. Online would be perfect.

Uh, yeah! Great idea.
Simply put, YES!
I’m all the way IN!

GO GO GO !
i think it is a great idea, andrea.
I would be very interested in learning more about the class. It sounds exciting.
sounds fantastic!
yes!! i need some inspiration now winter has finally hit 🙂
I’m don’t normally think of myself as a photographer, but your idea sounds like a good one! Your words in particular piqued my interest. I’d love to know more about taking pictures of my family, of reaching for a camera more to record special moments.
Sounds amazing!
if it is affordable, yes!
No Way! I was just thinking, like not 5 minutes ago, that I’d like to learn to use my real camera instead of just snapping pics with my iphone. This would be perfect, and there is a world of beauty to capture around me here in summer. Can’t wait to hear more!
Yes!
Yes! Sounds fun.
I am just starting to explore photography and I would love to learn more!:)

being behind the lens brings me into the moment to look at the little things and yes, yes, there it is the joy in both what I see through the viewfinder and in the process of capturing it. Oh, please do this class. I am in!

Hope – I mean really REALLY hope I can afford….. I’ve been telling my family that I want to do this all year (photography). Please do this! Thanks!
Yes oh yes!
I would LOVE to participate.

I’d be very interested!!
i’ve been hoping for something like this 🙂
Very interested! Perfect timing!
Would love to hear more. You are so talented and I’m always in awe of your photos.
Sounds interesting to me, too!
I’d love to hear more about it…
I got a “fancy” new DSLR camera and have only conquered the very, very basics…but would love to start using it a bit more than I do now.
I would be interested in learning more! I’m taking intro to creative photography this summer, but I miss getting out of my head and taking pics. I especially need help with portraits!
I’m interested!
YES!!!
very curious!
So very interested!
Sounds great, Andrea! Cost will be a factor for me, but we’ll see what unfolds! 🙂
sounds fun!
of course I would be interested. Everything you do is magical!
Totally! Would love to do this!!

Y-E-S!
yes please.
i’d love it! cost may be an issue, but i’d love to read about it!!
Viola! 🙂 And it came from a nap! OF COURSE IT DID!!!! Love this!
Sounds wonderful!!
over here in oakland, a resounding YES
I’m interested! If I could gather my mojo to be fully engaged in the class it would be a great thing. After a long struggle with infertility, I am finally newly pregnant– so, (fingers crossed) would love to document the the next stage of our lives more creatively!
yes. yes. and yes.
I am in! Would love to take part!
I am in! Would love to take part!

definitely count me in.
yes, please.

Yes! I’ve always wanted to do an online photography course, but never understood how someone could teach me all their tricks from so far away. I’m intrigued and eager!
I’m interested!
yes 🙂
Oh, yes, please. It’s on my 40 before 40 list and time’s running out:)
I’m in!
What a beautiful journey this will be!
Yes! Yes! YES!
I’m definitely interested in a photography class, if it is not TOO expensive.
Most assuredly!
Sounds like terrific fun! Would love to learn more about the class.
Yes!!!! Exactly what I have been looking for! : )
Definitely calls to me – very interested! Will be watching your blog for more details and would love love love to improve the frequency and quality for photos I take of our family as I’ve really fallen out of regular picture taking since baby #3 joined us last year. I’m a bit heartbroken about having fewer pictures of my 3rd (& sibs!) and hope that a fun, helpful class could jumpstart my informal documenting of our little brood. 🙂
I am interested!!
oh wow! i would be soooooooooooo interested!!!! Please, more details!!! <3
This idea definitely calls to me!
Yes, yes, yes! As I am about to move to another state with my 3.5 year old and my 8 week old I need something FUN and UNSTRESSFUL in my life!!!!!
I’d definitely be interested!
I can’t wait to learn more but I’m ready to sign up now!
I am very interested. Seems like a perfect summer project.
sounds like the perfect inspiration for summer!
I’m in!
Sounds interesting! Would love to hear more.
I’m interested! Sounds fun but I’m terrible with my husband’s fancy camera. It scares me. Could this change? I imagine so….
I LOVE it when that happens – ideas come almost tied with a bow. Then you put it out there and people love it.
Such a great example of the mysteries of the creative life!
I’d take your class if I weren’t already signed up for the Light Hunters class by Vivien McMaster.
Have fun with it!
