Christmas is Sooo Close | Photoshop Classes

October 30th, 2011

Without fail near all conversations at the moment included “I cannot believe  where the year has gone, it will be Christmas before we know it” Well I hate to point it out again -but serious Christmas is so close…  We are holding our last group workshop today for 2011 and have a few 1:1 remaining.

Without fail near all conversations at the moment included “I cannot believe  where the year has gone, it will be Christmas before we know it”

Well I hate to point it out again -but serious Christmas is so close…  We are holding our last group workshop today for 2011 and have a few 1:1 remaining.  It has been a great year thus far – thank you… Next year looks to be as good – we are taking bookings for Jan 2012 – 1:1 or small group workshops during the holidays – days are limited though…

We have had a few requests for play days – when we get together and go and shoot, or hover over the computer and ask questions re photoshop, downloading – more like a 20 questions session – if you are interested – shoot us an email with what you’d love to ask/see on the day…

Stay tuned for a few Christmas Ideas coming over the next couple of days.

Get out and enjoy the sunshine today…

PS. You didn’t really think I’d not post a pic did you?

These images are couple of when we went away to Coffs during the September holidays.  I “playtime” is Macro – love it…

 

And like all good families -the kids refusing to get out of the car for a quick photo…

Point Shoot Play now has a Facebook Page – here – go ‘like it’ – cause you like us ;)

Once we hit 250 likers and 500 likers, we will be giving away a copy of our Master Class and Workshop Notes for the last 4 years as well as an adorable Sassi Camera Strap.

It has been such a long time since i have been on here – bad blogger….

We are in the midst of separating Point Shoot Play & Meloo Photography – as in separate blogs…

Meloo Photography is also enjoying a mini facial -cannot wait to share…

Private 1:1 and small group classes have kept us busy so far throughout late 2010 and 2011  -  thank you…

But, we miss the store classes – so happy to announce that we will be teaching on Sat 21st May at KaiserCraft Robina -please contact the store all details – looking forward to seeing you there…

We are currently taking bookings for Private 1:1 and small group classes for May and June – please contact us if you would like to book your session.

And because I cannot  blog without popping up an image and it has been so long… An after shot of our 10 year sons Cake Smash – a little unconventional but a heap of fun all the same…

Have an awesome weekend

Only in Toowoomba… Last Thursday and Saturday saw me with Model Student  - our Senior Photography sister of Meloo Photography in Toowoomba.
Mother Nature decided that we needed reminding on the other 3 seasons in a span of 45 mins.
Thursday I was photographing the lovely Miss Sarah.  Sarah’s mum Michelle has been to a few Point Shoot Play Classes and was after something a little different  for Sarah’s pre formal photos.

Back in Toowoomba again on Saturday for a couple of shoots.  Happy to say Mother Nature was in a better mood.
First up was the gorgeous Ashleigh, mum Angella has also been to a few Point Shoot Play classes and being a talent designer for various Scrapbook companies was after something a little different to capture Ashleigh’s true essence with her pre formal photos.  For Ashleigh, we started at Toowoomba Station and finished up at my new fave field….


After Ashleigh’s whirlwind shoot -just before the rains came (for all of 10 mins :) )  it was time to Trash Miss Emma’s dress (not really mum – promise.)

First stop the field…

And then the water…

Thanks again for having me…
