New England Institute of Professional Photography

This is the time of year that I head off to the Cape for a week of intensive learning.  I took a children's portraiture class with Stewart and Susan Powers of Gainesville, FL.  They were amazing!  This year the school was at Oceans Edge in Brewster.  Check out my photos of the place.  Our class with the Powers was one of the best yet.  We all became so close and are continuing the friendships we made.  One important lesson that I learned was what it felt like to be on the other side of the camera.  You will see a portrait of me that the Powers took and I'm being brave enough to put it up here.  I can't believe how nervous I was to pose in front of everyone.  Now I have a much better understanding of what people feel when they tell me they're nervous before their sessions.  Anyway I'm back and "powered" up!
