Blogging Your Way e-course: Intention & Style

I'm so excited to announce that we've opened registration for our mega-fabulous upcoming Blogging Your Way e-course called "Intention & Style". I'm 26 weeks pregnant so this is the last class I'll be doing until next Spring, so catch me now before I begin nesting! :) For this online class, I've asked Photographer/Stylist Naomi Robinson from Bakers Royale and Better Homes & Gardens along with Lisa Nieschlag, who is a stylist, graphic designer and cookbook author with her fourth title releasing in January to be my very special co-teachers. (Psst: Lisa also helps produce these really great food recipe videos with her partner, Julia.) Our e-course will focus on INTENTION as a blogger and will motivate you to really fall in love again with blogging in case you’re currently in a rut because let's face it, we bloggers can get into ruts. We'll also focus on STYLE because c'mon, the blogs most of us love have a specific style and really put a lot into their content right? So we're going to help you to learn how to take professional-looking photos of crafts, interiors, food and more that you'll be proud to share online and we'll cover photo editing along with loads of styling how-to's so you can style your photos in a way that gets your posts a lot more pins and social media shares.
