Today we are Giving Away... (PRIZE CLAIMED)


A Photo By Emilie Photography Workbook

Do you ever look at other people’s photos and think, “How in the world did they capture that image so well?” Or see a photo that has been digitally touched-up and say to yourself, “How can I turn my photo into such a beautiful masterpiece?” All right, maybe you don’t use the word “masterpiece”, but you could. Because once you use Photo by Emilie’s photography workbook you can transform your dumpy old photos into masterpieces. It can be done, people. It can be done. And it can be done by YOU.

Whether you are a novice or seasoned photographer, professional photographer Emilie Decker of Photo by Emilie has created a Photography Workbook that will teach you how to go from auto to manual (this is the difference between point & hope and point & create); how to look at light when you walk onto a location and why every position is in relation to where light falls and doesn't fall; her top poses for newborns, kids, family and portraits; her favorite "take off 20 pounds" poses (I would buy the workbook just for those tips right there); and how she learned Photoshop (this one skill will take your photos from the dumpy to masterpiece scenario we mentioned earlier). Also, for those of you living in Utah, we have a special invitation for you from Photo by Emilie to attend her Photo by Emilie Photography Workshop:

When is it? - Saturday, May 30th, from 9-1 pm

Where will it be? - Noah's, in South Jordan, Utah .We'll be in their theater room (leather recliners - oh yeah!!)

How much will it cost - Tuition is $225

What does that include? - My 40 page workbook, a copy of my action set, a copy of my texture set & a coupon collection that includes a coupon for a 1/2 off sitting by Me:) (over $200 value)

What will I learn? – A LOT!!

Wanna little discount? Of course!! Until May 1st your tuition is just $169. Click here to purchase, or contact Emilie directly at emilie at photobyemilie dot com or 801.808.3669.

You can enter to win Photo by Emilie’s invaluable photography workbook up to THREE times today. And by the way, if you mention you saw Photo by Emilie on Give Away Today you can receive a 10% DISCOUNT off the purchase of a Photo By Emilie Workbook between now and May 1st. I would love one for me and for my sister Kris--she has just become interested in photography.

For a third entry tell us your first and last name and then describe a picture of you in which you are really happy. If you would like, add an attachment of the picture or post it on your blog and give us the url so we can see a happy you.
