Need Some Inspiration? Check out Gatherings Through The Lens with Holly Clark

If you are looking to improve your event photography, whether personal or professional, then you should definitely check out a new ecourse offered by Big Picture Classes called Gatherings Through the Lens with Holly Clark.

I adore Holly and her work.  I met Holly 3 years ago at Camp Shutter Sisters and have been following her work ever since.

Holly is an amazing photographer who truly knows how to capture captivating images of events and celebrations both big and small.  In this class she will share everything she has learned over the past 3 years shooting professional events.  After taking this course, you will will have better understanding of how to capture magical moments.

She is a Mortal Muse contributor,  Stocksy United artist and instructor for several other Big Picture Classes including this summer's Phone Photography Project 2.  Holly has a passion for sharing her knowledge and is one of the most helpful photographers I know.

The Phone Photography Project 2 from Big Picture Class---Are You In?

by Kristina Rust Photography

I love the classes offered at Big Picture Classes.  They have a wide variety of online courses that are fantastic.  If you are looking to get your creative juices flowing this is the place for you!

On July 17th I will be participating in  The Phone Photography Project 2 and I am so excited.  I signed up for the Phone Photography Project:  Summer Challenge last year and had so much fun (it was the biggest class they ever had and is still being offered as a stand alone class this year and is worth checking out).

The Phone Photography Project 2 is perfect for those of you who are ready to transform your mobile photography.  You will be guided by twenty expert iPhoneographers (several of whom are women I am thrilled to know personally) who will share their tips and tricks on mastering lighting, composition, editing and more.

Plus you will be able to participate in a private posting gallery where you can share photos and gain valuable insights from fellow photographers.  It really is a great way to connect and become inspired.

I hope you will join me and sign up for this very inspiring class.

Black and White--Finding "Monochromatic Magic"

For the past few weeks I've been participating in Tracey Clark's Picture Black and White class.  It has been a wonderful experience and has really prompted me to look at things in a whole new way.  Every other day we receive a prompt in our email box along with inspirational musing's from Tracey.  It has been an excellent study in finding (as Tracey would say)  "monochromatic magic."

Below are a few images that I've taken over the past few weeks--most have been taken with my iPhone and processed using Instagram but a few are from my Canon 7D and processed by simply using iPhoto.
