Charlie has been asking me if I know of a photography class, he could take so he can learn to take better pictures. With us moving I haven’t had the time to look into a class both Charlie and David can take together. As one of Charlie’s Homeschool Extra Curricular Classes.
With our copy of Dogtography: A Knock-Your-Socks-Off Guide to Capturing the Best Dog Photos on Earth Charlie David can read through the book and use the tips offered to practice taking pictures of the dogs one at a time and also in a group setting.
As they work through the book and build their confidence, they can even add people into the pictures there taking. Including Charlie’s grandmother Sherry and her dog Penny. Would you like to join Charlie and David in their class and help them take pictures of Animals in the community?
Charlie is so funny he couldn’t get past the Dog on the cover and looking up this breed of dog and what makes him special leading to more Homeschool lessons. Charlie and I enjoyed getting to know the Author and learn she is just like Charlie and I as we have to pet every single dog we come into contact with. Do you do this as well?
I feel in love with the picture of the lady and the Saint Bernard which I used to have and wish I still did as I miss my big baby. Charlie loved how the Author said dogs speak because Charlie and I know our dogs do all the time and sometimes they talk more than Charlie and I combined.
Throughout the book Charlie and I learned so much about dogs that we can use not only with our own pets but our friends and family’s dogs as well and we can share tips with their parents to help them all get along better with each other.
Not knowing much about camera’s or how they work having chapters like camera settings teaching us shutter speeds is a GOD send to my family. Charlie had fun gathering the supplies in the chapter dirty little secrets which we would need when photographing our dogs,
