will be looking for newborns, as well as some kids to model.

This will be a two full day workshop. We will discuss and work with natural lighting, and everything that comes with it. We will also discuss business as I have mentioned at my last Australian workshop that there is an untouched market there that is waiting to be grabbed. This will also probably be my last Australian workshop for a few years...if not forever. :(

We will be having the workshop at my fellow photographer Kate Buechner of Uber Photography studio. I met Kate when I was visiting Sydney last year in 2011. So I am SUPER excited to see her again!!

Uber Photography is located at

554 Pacific Highway
Killara


I will attach some pictures of the studio. We will go outside as well....there are great locations to shoot at around the studio.


This workshop is limited to 10-12 participants. The cost is $1250/USD, and payment plans will be accepted. There will also be a 15% discount on all secured registration retainers received on or before 30, June 2012.

If you're interested, please send me an email at audrey@alwphotography.com to receive the registration packet. If you have already sent me an email asking to be placed on the list...and you don't receive a registration form, and other information, please email me again. Sometimes things are routed to my SPAM folder, and it is deleted before I can check it.

For those of you who are interested in the Melbourne Australia workshop which takes place the weekend prior, there are still 3 spots left.

Since I've put out my book, I have received a lot of response from my fellow Chicago residents about workshops. With workshops... I only teach them to residents who live outside of Illinois due to the business talk that takes place. Many Illinois residents asked me to teach a workshop that covered just technique.

New blog coming.... http://www.audreywoulardblog.com/index.cfm?postID=383 http://www.audreywoulardblog.com/index.cfm?postID=383 Mon, 09 Apr 2012 11:30:00 GMT
What will happen to this blog? Nothing. It will stay in place.

Will you post to it? Not sure!

Why not just take this blog down and replace it with a new one? The thought of getting rid of it messes with my head.... I would rather start over with a new one. Yes.. crazy.. I know.

When will the new blog go live? Im hoping tomorrow (April 10th!)

Where will you announce it? I will list the new link here... it will be on the front of my main portfolio website, and on my Facebook page.

Why did you do this lame Q...A? Because I am on my 3rd cup of coffee. You do crazy things sometimes when your high on this much caffeine.

May 19-20 2012 workshops http://www.audreywoulardblog.com/index.cfm?postID=380 http://www.audreywoulardblog.com/index.cfm?postID=380 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:58:00 GMT
There are still 5 spots left in the May 2012 workshop taking place on the 19th and 20th. Originally Chicago was hosting that huge G-Summit meeting, and hotel prices skyrocketed! I always make it a point to check the happenings in Chicago before I announce dates, and all was clear...and it was for a while, until they announced that meeting. :(

Well now the G-Summit meeting has been cancelled, and the prices are starting to come down. I wanted to list a few hotels here that I found that came down in price for anyone that is interested...

My studio is located in the Downtown area...

Chicago Marriott Magnificent Mile 540 North Michigan Avenue, (Driveway Entrance on 541 North Rush Street) · Chicago, Illinois 60611 *(800) 228-9290* -- $209/night


Holiday Inn Express -640 North Wabash Avenue Chicago, IL 60611 $229/night (312) 787-4030

Affina Hotel - 66 East Superior Street Chicago, IL 60611 Tel: 312.787.6000 $240/night (fabulous hotel!)

Burham Hotel - 1 W Washington St Chicago, IL 60602 (312) 782-1111 $249

Fairmont Hotel - 200 North Columbus Drive Chicago, IL 60601 (312) 565-8000 $199



Should you want to stay near O'Hare airport... that is about 20 minutes away from Downtown, but it is a VERY easy cab ride in. A straight shot...and cabs are all waiting at the hotel if need be. Or.. if I need to arrange for transportation for those who choose to stay in the O'hare area due to the hotel costs.. I can totally look into that as well!

Hotel InterContinental - InterContinental Chicago O'Hare | 5300 N. River Road , Rosemont, IL 60018 | T: 847.544.5300 $135/night

Double Tree Hilton - 5460 North River Road, Rosemont, Illinois, United States 60018 Tel: 1-847-292-9100 - $135/night

Embassy Suites O'hare - 5500 N River Rd Rosemont, IL 60018 (847) 678-4000 $159

Four Points Sheraton - 10249 West Irving Park Road Schiller Park, IL 60176 (847) 671-6000 - $115/night


The prices might come down a bit further, but I wanted to place this info on the blog!

New informal blogsite!!! http://www.audreywoulardblog.com/index.cfm?postID=379 http://www.audreywoulardblog.com/index.cfm?postID=379 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 20:12:00 GMT
______________________________________________________
Hey everyone! Just wanted to share a new blog to feed my need for randomness...

www.alwinspire.com

This blogsite is from my FAVORITE web designers Intothedarkroom. www.intothedarkroom.com can not sing their praises enough. They also designed my main website at www.alwphotography.com


There are sooooo many times when I want to share silly things that are a bit out of the norm of what I normally post. (of course...there will be a few normal things too! ;-) ) But this will be moreso a blog/website(!?) where I can just share things that inspire me...and hopefully inspire you too. I will share behind the scenes images, crazy captures, products I am loving (because people tell me about sooooo many new things), words of inspiration, even some tutorials.... and probably much more as I think of it.

Will I be keeping and updating my regular blog? Yes. That will be mostly new session pictures, and other business like things. Its all still a work in progress, but in order to hold myself accountable, I have to announce it publically! LOL!

Because alwinspire is an informal blog...I will update it every other day...or even every day! :-)
