			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>In a world that wants you to conform to an image to be just like everyone else, stand out and be the unique person you were created to be!</em></p>
<p>Our popular, <em>Being the Me I was Created to Be</em> photography workshop for girls ages 10-18,  will be offered online in a 6-week class starting May 6.</p>
<p>Students complete photography assignments which are  designed to challenge thinking and creativity, and help them to gain more insight into themselves as the person God created them to be. They also learn basics of camera techniques, composition, and lighting&#8211;giving them tools to take better pictures.</p>
<ul>
<li>Weekly assignments will be available by download May 6 &#8211; June 10. Students  can work at their own pace and will have until June 30th to complete their assignments.</li>
<li>Each student receives a photo kit which includes a specially designed  photo journal, along with the materials to complete their own vision  board.</li>
<li>Digital cameras will be used.</li>
<li>Workshop fee for instruction and materials is $75</li>
<li>Class is limited to 10 students on first come, first served basis</li>
</ul>
<p>Program creator Joan Rudder-Ward holds private, online classes for individuals, and this group workshop will have some of the benefits of private instruction, <strong>but </strong>with group rates.</p>
<p>Reserve your space today!  Please <a href="mailto:info@photography-with-purpose.com">email us </a> expressing your interest in registering, and we will let you know if space is available and send you an invoice.  Also  contact us with any questions you may have.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We completed our first ever mixed-group workshop (7 female and 5 male teens) with great success! This was a 5-day workshop and we did have one day where the group was split to address specific gender-related topics. Since this was our first workshop ever working with boys, we were stretched and even picked up a few new creative ways to do things!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.photography-with-purpose.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/LSS-workshop.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-320" title="LSS workshop" src="http://www.photography-with-purpose.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/LSS-workshop-300x208.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="208" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s some of  the remarks written on their evaluation sheets:</p>
<p><em>I learned that photography is fun and I want to do this again!</em></p>
<p><em>I liked that I was able to express my artistically and that I was able to use scrapbooking for my vision board</em></p>
<p><em>I learned to love myself as God does</em></p>
<p><em>I learned how to cooperate better and be more open to new ideas and new things</em></p>
<p>We&#8217;re soaring to new heights!<em><br />
</em></p>
