Last weekend I had one of my digital photography classes at the studio and it was a big hit! I love teaching the class and seeing little light bulbs go off for people. It's like, "AHA! I can do this!". I have 3 more classes scheduled for this year.  The next one is in March and will also be a beginner's class. You can sign up here through EventBrite

For those of you who have taken the first class and want to go even further and learn more, I have an intermediate class on May 22, 2010. We'll be sending an EventBrite invite out through our email list. However, if you would like to go ahead and sign up now, please feel free to call the studio at (713) 255-2882.

Here's a little info about our beginner's class:

Digital Photography Class!
Taking your photography to the next level

Are you tired of feeling discouraged and confused when it comes to your digital camera?  Would you like to take better pictures of your family and friends? I thought so! Come join me on Saturday, March 13, 2010 for a special event at my studio. I am teaching a one day digital photography workshop for beginning and intermediate photographers shooting with a digital SLR camera.  

Some of the topics we'll talk about:

- Camera controls- learn how to really control your camera, know how to shoot in   
  various modes, and learn what all those letters and icons mean.
- Finding good light, dealing with bad lighting, and using your flash better.
- Metering the light, you can control your camera and not always the other way around!
- Composition, color and creativity!
- Lenses and equipment.

Each student will receive a gift bag, which will include coupons, hand-outs and free gifts!

Limited to 25 students! Please reserve your spot now because this class will sell out.

Where: Farrah Braniff Photographs
1210 W. Clay, Loft 18, Houston TX. 77019

Would you like to hear what students have to say about the class?

"Thank you so very much for the fabulous class. I learned a lot and I can't wait to start practicing. The class exceeded my expectations and for the first time in my life, I feel like I know what to do with my camera. I loved the practicing during the class which really helped to remember what was being talked about in the class. You are an excellent teacher and one of the most talented photographers I have seen. I know your time is precious and I really appreciate it that you spent your valuable Saturday teaching us such useful information to help make us more successful and confident. Thank you for the great class!"

"I just wanted to let you know about a wonderful class Farrah Braniff offers.  I attended the one day class today and it was just what I was looking for!  The class was very informative and helpful, laid back, and most importantly, fun!  Farrah offered advice for both technical and non technical modifications you could start making right away in order to take better pictures and gave us an opportunity to go outside and practice some of the tips with our own cameras as the class went along.  She was patient in answering everyone's questions and had a great presentation prepared which also included advice on equipment and picture storage.  What I enjoyed most was the fact that I can start using the things she talked about today immediately which is very empowering!  In fact, I came home and took several shots of my kids playing that looked so much better than they would have yesterday without my new found knowledge...including that ever so popular shot where the kid is in focus, but the messy background is softly blurred and no longer distracting from the picture.  I'm so relieved to be able to shoot in something other than just auto...or to at least be able to start practicing doing so. I think Farrah offers the class again in another month or two, and I would highly recommend it!"

Kate Healy says: Hi, I heard about you from my sister (Amanda Garcia) who has gotten pictures taken of her two girls (Olivia & Sophia) and then I found out about your photography class. I have taken photography classes before, so I don't think I need the beginner's class, but how different is the beginner's class from your intermediate class? What is the date of the intermediate class? Thanks, Kate Healy (02.16.10 @ 03:19 PM)
