Professional Children's Photography: Take Picture-Perfect Portraits of Newborns, Children, and Teens

Taught by Elisha Snow

6-week guided workshop • Starts November 20, 2014

If you have a DSLR and you've ever struggled to capture that perfect picture of a child—one that's actually in focus, with smiling faces and sparkling eyes—then you are ready for Professional Children's Photography!

Through a series of instructional videos (with detailed photography set-ups) and colorful instructional handouts, this class is packed with every tip, trick, and secret you can imagine for getting the very best photos of kids at any age. We're talking props, poses, and tons of practical advice.

After completing this class, you'll have books and folders overflowing with information on the very best techniques for capturing children in every stage. You'll be able to take amazing candid and posed pictures of your own children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and friends. No more cheesy school pictures and lame soccer poses!

Every picture you take will showcase your child's unique personality and tell beautiful stories of his or her life. Elisha's goal for you is to have a home filled to the brim with captivating photos of little ones—each one specially designed and developed by YOU to bring smiles and joy for generations to come.

Please note: All guided workshops you sign up for between now and January 31, 2015 will be transferring to our new site, so you can continue to access the content online even after the transition. We will send you a unique code for each class once the new platform is live. You will then enter this code into the new site and PRESTO, your class content will be archived there. You are also welcome to download and keep anything you wish.
