After meeting and mingling, we will gather in the warm sunlight by the
pond. Leave your cameras in the car (for now!) and meet us down by the
pond with your mat or blanket for our first part of this unique class
– meditation. We’ll introduce ourselves and then begin with
guided morning meditation by Certified Yoga and Meditation Teacher,
Maureen Dinkins.
Maureen has been teaching yoga since 2004 and believes it is an
integral part of health and physical fitness. Through deep movements,
stretches, binds and strengthening; in conjunction with synchronized
breathing, a well-defined yoga practice will allow the body to recover
quicker from workouts, injuries, and a stressed-out mind.
Through the years of yoga practice and encounters with teachers in
America and abroad, Maureen was lead to add mediation to her daily
wellness routines. For more than 2 decades, she has continued to
practice meditation in conjunction with her daily yoga asanas.
_“YOGA IS THE MOVEMENT OF THE BODY, FOR THE PURPOSE OF QUIETING THE
MIND CHATTER. MEDITATION IS LISTENING TO THE STILL MIND TO CONNECT
TO ONE’S SPIRIT ON A DEEPER LEVEL._
_THE BENEFITS OF MEDITATION CAN GO FROM SUBTLE TO DRAMATIC. WITH
REGULAR PRACTICE OF THIS PHYSICAL AND MENTAL “TRANQUILITY”, A
QUIET ROAR OF SELF-CONFIDENCE AND PURPOSE ARISE, BRINGING A SENSE OF
CLARITY TO LIFE AND THE WORLD AROUND US.” _

After guiding us through simple but powerful breathing techniques and
a morning meditation, we will stretch our legs and take a meditative
walk around the lake and gardens. During this walking meditation, you
will begin to notice all the beautiful scenery that you may feel the
urge to photograph. But no cameras yet!
The goal is to stay in a meditative state and become aware of your
surroundings and what makes you curious. You can wander and walk
wherever you’re meditation takes you. We will gather again after
10-15 minutes to discuss our experiences. After we identify the
different aspects of our surroundings that we were attracted too,
it’s time to take photos.

You’ll grab your cameras, then wander around for another meditative
walk through the park, capturing all the new perspectives you want.
As we explore this old, authentic Florida habitat, we’ll reveal
in-the-moment lighting tips, interesting compositional techniques, and
how to anticipate photo opportunities based on movement, perspective,
and light. Danielle will share 3-5 new visual storytelling tricks that
you can try to capture your stories.
In the end, we’ll share how each experience felt different, allowing
us all to understand the relationship between breath, body, and mind.
You will leave feeling a new sense of peace and joy as you gain new
perspectives and literally see life through a new lens.

WHAT ARE OTHERS SAYING ABOUT THE LIVE WONDERFUL PHOTOGRAPHY CLASSES?
_"There are lots of instructional books out there; however, some
things are better learned hands-on. I believe PHOTOGRAPHY IS ONE OF
THOSE THINGS! Danielle is an awesome instructor and I thoroughly
enjoyed her Beginner’s Photography Workshop! She took us back to
basics, explained all the cool features and buttons on my camera and
then focused (pun intended!) on the “need to know” functions. It
was a great experience. Thank you!"_
_~ Lana Mullinax_
-------------------------
_"I LOVED Danielle’s DSLR Photography class! I took a private lesson
since I feel like I am just about at the intermediate level in
photography. It was so helpful to meet with her one-on-one. She has a
great, positive attitude, and her passion for photography is
contagious!_
_Danielle provided some great tips and explained the aperture in a way
that finally made sense to me. She really knows how to break down the
science of photography. She also provided a Photography Reference
Guide after the class, which I take with me whenever I go on a shoot!
I’m looking forward to a Lightroom class soon._
_I would definitely recommend Danielle!"_
_~ Kelly Lamano_
-------------------------
_"Cannot say enough positive things about Danielle and this class. I
have had a digital SLR for several years and was resigned to being
intimidated by it… Danielle explained the functions of the camera
and its settings so well. For the first time, I FINALLY am getting
what it means to take the camera off “auto” and why and how to do
that. We then took what she taught us and practiced with it outside
— the only way to see if I was “getting it”. Worth every penny
and then some."_
