Hands On!

I consider myself so very fortunate to have "met" Jackie Ludlage on a forum several years ago.  From our online friendship came a wonderful opportunity to work with her on her publication, Canadian Scrapbooker.  I started with CS when they first launched their Winter 2005 issue (goodness, was it that long ago??) with my first article, Photographing Your Layout, in the Let's Get Technical section.  I've had so much fun working with Jackie, Katharina and the CS crew in the ensuing years.

I am now excited to have started a new column for the magazine!

In the current Fall 2009 issue, we revealed the new Hands On! Photography section - a 7 part series in which I discuss various topics of photography in each issue.  The exciting news is that I will be posting a tutorial each month on related aspects, pertaining to the current article, on the new Canadian Scrapbooker Hands On! blog!!

I'm having alot of fun (and it's a great kick-in-the-pants to get me to blog more often on my personal blog, too!) and love seeing everyone's submissions for the tutorial each month.

In September, I talked about using fast shutter speeds to capture action and motion.  Sierra Heggie was randomly chosen as our September winner - you can see her submission HERE.  This month, we're offering a great Pink Paislee prize pack:

It's easy to win - all you have to do is read the tutorial, practice some of the tips and submit your photos to be showcased on the blog!  A winner will be randomly chosen within a week of the deadline and posted on our blog!

Have you read the October tutorial yet? :)
