Hi, my name is Kenna and I am a
creativeLIVE addict. If founder
Craig Swanson at creativeLIVE says jump, I say "how high"? Perhaps I wouldn't jump off a bridge if Craig suggested it, but these days I find myself willing to do most anything for creativeLIVE. Name my first baby boy Craig Chase Klosterman?? hmmm - not sure about that one either...
I ask myself, why am I such a groupie that I preach and tweet, tweet and preach about creativeLIVE all day long? Well, because my life is all about the interconnected cycle of giving, receiving, giving, receiving. That's kinda how the world works in my humble opinion. creativeLIVE karma - yes, that's it. As Craig says, I'm a true believer.
creativeLIVE gives me and the world free creative education, and we all receive it with gratitude, pass it on to others around us, make the world a better place using the tools we have learned. Try it on for size - pay it forward by turning friends and colleagues on to creativeLIVE, and see how it changes their lives like it has yours and mine. CL founders
Chase Jarvis and Craig Swanson believe in the democratization of creative education - and they are walking the walk, not just talking the talk. My fellow partner-in-crime-chat-hostess
Susan Roderick and I are stunned every single day with how much we have learned from our involvement in creativeLIVE over the past year - for free. Wow - were we ever in the right place at the right time to have become volunteer chat hosts at CL? Thank you Universe!
The list of upcoming FREE photography workshops in 2011 is not just impressive, it's downright crazy talk! Vincent Laforet and Jasmine Star are BOTH back in the CL house after stellar weekend workshops in 2010. And the workshop announcements have only just begun. Meanwhile - there are
a ton of other exciting weekly classes in addition to these weekend workshops - can you say
John Greengo? And I'm not just talking about classes on photography, but courses exploring many more avenues of the creative life. Plus, the
archive of classes that can be purchased for ridiculously low prices is long and growing.
Here's a brief summary of what creativeLIVE has announced so far for the weekend workshop series:
March 4-6: HDDSLR - Moving from Still to Video with Vincent Laforet
Creative Live Promo from

March 18-20: Posing and Lighting with Bambi Cantrell
April 9-10: Building Your Wedding Photography Business with Jasmine Star
May 13-15: Food & Culture Photography with Penny De Los Santos
July 29-31: Street Photography with Mikey & Andy of Lighten Up and Shoot
But wait, there's bound to be much much more. Are you ready? I am!
Alright Craig - what do you have for us next? And what can WE (the interwebs) do in return for that juicy creativeLIVE sharing-of-goodness karma next?
