    Thanks Sean. I took notes like I was back in college. Upon returning to study them, I learned that you must always be positive and upbeat.

    ...I can't make sense of anything else on my notes page.

    You are my hero Sean! Thanks for the video!

    I'm trying to learn my girlfriend how to use her DSLR for over half a year now, but I didn't realize I did it all wrong. Now I can tell her that she doesn't have to be an apprentice anymore, but that she can become professional very easily just by followwing Missy's videos. That's the best news I had in a while. Thanks a million times!

    I learned two valuable lessons from the first video and the one on posing your subjects.

    Shot your subjects in P mode, and line them up against a wall.

    I think with that, the client will know exactly what he has bought.

    Wow!! I had no idea it would be that easy to become a professional. I have decided to go Pro tomorrow. I would start today, but I need to charge my batteries first... I assume I still need batteries to get the camera to work in "P" mode (a.k.a., professional mode).

    Ditto, I have got to find out where I can get a tapestry bag like that---it would go so well with my camo coveralls---

    Thanks Sean, Hilarious, but I could only make it through 3 of the videos.

    P stands for professional, didn't you know?
    Adobe, give us courage to edit what photos must be altered, serenity to delete what cannot be helped, and the insight to know the one from the other.

    That was pretty painful to watch.

    You really hope that this is just a joke and no one really believes what she is saying.







    but on the other hand.... people still sport the mullet.
