This past weekend, we held our first ever Good Snaps Workshop, a hands-on learning experience in capturing moments. We hosted our event with Scobey Photography at the beautiful Avalon in Alpharetta, and enjoyed an afternoon of learning, laughter & plennnty of iced coffee. We covered everything from learning photography basics, to navigating through our cameras, editing & finding your photography style. We learned that everyone there had a vision, they knew what kind of photos they wanted to get but some of the technical details of the camera or editing process were missing. We were able to spend quite a bit of time doing some more hands-on learning, where we worked with each individual to answer their questions & help walk them through getting the perfect shot.
We got so much great feedback from everyone & saw lots of “ah-ha!” moments happening all around the room, which made us so very happy! To the amazing group of girls that took a chance & came to our first workshop, it was a learning experience for all of us, and we love you for it!!
A huge thank you to all of our sponsors & everyone who helped spoil our attendees, you can see more swag bag details on Instagram.
We are also soooo excited to share that we will be bringing this workshop to you online very soon!! You’ll be able to watch the workshop & follow along from the comfort of your own home. You can sign up here to be the first to hear when the workshop is available, we can’t wait to share it with you!
Of course, we have also been talking about how much we would love to do another workshop, and based on feedback from this one, something that has an even larger hands-on portion where we can really help you get to know your cameras & your shooting style! We would love to know WHERE you would like to see us host the next one, so let us know in the comments below!
PS. If even one person suggests Burlington, VT or Salem, MA, we are so there. 😉

Plus I've been a fan since before Harper was born and would love to meet you and learn from you! I'm looking into starting a small side business bc I really dont want to go back to the corporate world when my maternity leave is over, and you are my inspiration! So again I say… Salem MA!!! #doit!
