Eye Candy

Like many of the new generation of photographers, I am self taught.
I have a diary entry capturing the moment I realised photography was something I wanted to develop, and I likened the experience to suddenly realising you are in love with your best friend.  

I don't know why, but as I typed that, this scene came into my head; and you can't think of Some Kind of Wonderful without remembering this scene... Oh the classics from my youth...

Anyway, once I had made the decision, the Internet was like a treasure trove to me, and I found so many amazing photographers, artists really, whose work I admired.  Sheye Rosemeyer was one of my early discoveries, and to this day, her work still blows my mind.

She has such an distinctive style.  Ethereal.  Timeless.
I couldn't get enough.
So you can imagine my excitement when she announced her online workshops!
Look, the workshop site alone gives you a sampling of the attention to detail Sheye has.
Isn't it just divine?

I signed up for Evolve, and it was not a disappointment.
Unfortunately, at the time, photography and e-courses were still a very new concept to me, so I don't feel I took full advantage of the forum.   Since then I have grown and evolved so much, both as a photographer and blogger, I think I would gain a completely different experienceif I had the opportunity to do it all over again.  
Who knows, I may well sign up again the next time the workshop comes round!
