Dog Shots for Everyone!
A one day pet photography workshop for non-professionals with Teresa Berg Sunday May 19th 9am-6pm
For years we have had requests for a one day workshop for dog lovers to be held here in Dallas. So we're scheduling this wonderful day long adventure to help you learn your camera and get the skills you need to make great pictures of your dog. This workshop is not for pros, but we ask that everyone use a DSLR.
Got a nice camera but have no idea how to go beyond the automatic settings? This is the workshop for you. Whether it’s indoors, outdoors, natural light or studio lights, Teresa will cover all different types of shooting and help you achieve the results you want! Using live pet models indoors and out, we will explore the different camera settings, lenses and tools that make professional portraits look so amazing.
Here’s a list of topics to be covered:
Which lenses for which effects?
Shutter speed + Aperture + ISO
Dog body language and “Managing your subject”
Choosing the right location
Flash vs Natural light
Setting up the shot
The cost is $295 per person for the 8 hours of instruction, lunch and all the fun you can handle. We will keep the group small so that everyone has an opportunity to ask questions and shoot. We will provide a variety of dogs to photograph in a variety of different settings, both indoors and out. We will have less than 20 people in the class so that everyone has an opportunity to shoot and ask questions.
If you’re a hands-on learner, this is the workshop for you. And this is a shooting workshop, not an all day lecture –so dress comfortably!
The full amount of $295 + tax is due to hold your space in the workshop and it is non-refundable. Call us to use a credit card, or use the paypal button below. If you have paid for a seat and find that you cannot attend, you can sell your seat, but we will not be issuing refunds.
If the weather is unworkable, we will work around it. Call the studio at 972-250-2415 with your questions. For those of you coming in from out of town, we're working on a discounted rate at the Aloft Hotel in Plano www.aloftplano.com--- it's fun and dog friendly.

Sylvia Griggs - Hi, I have a friend already signed up to come, Vicky Hollowell. I'm seriously considering coming also. Some friends and I are starting to take pictures at our local shelter. One of the gals is interested in coming too but doesn't take the pictures, it would be more of finding out how to help the photographer. Do you think this workshop would be valuable for her and would she need to pay the full workshop fee?

Debra Jones - Hope you got my registration. I'm really looking forward to this workshop. I need to upgrade my camera lens (kit lens that it came with). What lenses do you recommend for pet photography? Also, please let us know if you get an arrangement with the hotel you mentioned. A Saturday night stay would be great.
Thanks.
