Happy New Year !

Jan 11'

Sometimes I get an idea and I can't sleep because I am so excited to start a new project. So I am spilling the beans. I will start teaching photography again in March at the Nose Hill Library.
I love shooting but I really miss the teaching and I think it's time to get back into it.
I will be offering 3 Classes: Absolute Beginners for those that need a slower pace, Beginners 101 and Intermediate Digital Photography. The classes will be very small and hands on.
Call me at 403-547-3617 for more information. SOOO Excited !!!!!
