Registration for the next Photographers' Workshop begins this morning (Wednesday, February 15th, 2012) at 9 a.m. Pacific Time. (This class runs from April 2nd - June 10th.)
To register just go here.
Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. I have no way of knowing how today's registration will go but past classes have always filled up fast so you'll want to type quickly. (To make the process quicker, just fill out the 'General Information' section, knowing that you can fill out the remaining information at a later time, after your registration is complete.)
The workshop runs for 10 weeks, includes 45 lesson (a total of 450+ pages of information and images) and 9 assignments. There is a class forum (an image from the Q&A Board is shown below) where you can interact with your classmates, post all of your questions, upload your assignments and post images for fun and/or critique. (This forum is my full time job so you'll have access to me 40+ hours a week during the entire course.)
I allow a limited number of 'regular students' ($395) and 'auditing students' ($245). Auditing students can participate in class exactly like a regular student, asking questions, posting comments, uploading photos, etc. The only difference between auditing students and regular students is that I do not provide evaluations for assignments or photo critiques posted by auditing students.
Some students choose to audit because the regular seats usually fill up quickly and other students choose to audit because their schedule is busy and they want the flexibility of working at their own pace, knowing that they can choose to schedule a telephone or Skype consult ($95 per hour) with me in the future to ask questions and receive feedback on their images.
If you'd like to receive updates on future classes via email, you can get on the wait list here. (There's currently 1268 people on the waiting list but don't let that scare you!)
If you have any additional questions, check out the information here. If you don't find the answer to your question there, feel free to leave your question in the comments section and I'll update this post with the answer to your question marked in red so you don't miss my response.
And you can weed through the comments on this post from Feb. 2011 (Sorry, I was doing a giveaway so there's 800+ comments) to hear what some past students have to say about the class.
Hope I didn't miss anything and looking forward to having some of you in my next class! (Oh, and if you email me on registration day, please be patient with my response because registration day is crazy for me!)
And if you are on the fence registration will probably be closed before you make up your mind but I just have to say...This class is the best thing I have ever done for my photography. I owe who I am as a photographer to Karen. This is not some cranked out in bulk class. You will truly feel like you know Karen by the end of the class...and years afterwards. She is insanely dedicated to making you know your camera. Don't hesitate. I have said it before but I will say it again. What is the point of an expensive camera if you have no idea how to use it. I think the money I spent on this class was more important than my camera. Plus, I got a great friend out of it. :-)

This class is amazing! The best photography class I have ever taken (and I've taken quite a few!!!!) Karen is always available to her students and doesn't hold anything back! She makes sure you know everything you want to know about photography, your camera, everything! Plus she's pretty fun too!
I can't recommend this class enough! Definitely sign up!!!

me, too! :) wasn't expecting to get in - SO excited! Auditing here, as well! BUT was actually trying to "upgrade" with no success due to the fact that my email address is already in the system - Karen, is it full at this point for 'regular' students?
Excited either way!!

I am still kinda in shock that I made it in. I had set my alarm and slept right through it. My son woke me up about 9:45. I flew down the stairs thinking I had no chance. Something in my heart urged me to try. I got in. Had a tears ofjoy moment and then called up my hubby. Thank you Karen for giving us all the opportunity to learn from you!!!
