[OFFER] Transform Your Selfies From Meh To Magical, :)

 

Tired of not knowing what the hell you’re doing when taking a selfie with your phone?

 
SHOOT IT YOURSELF JOHN DEMATO.jpg
 

I can help you with that, :) Details below.

 

How many times have you found yourself annoyed, frustrated and defeated when you look through your camera roll at your attempts to capture a decent selfie?

Yeah, I know - I have two eyes and see the carnage on my feed on a daily bass - no judgement, I swear :)  

Honestly, though, I totally get it. 

Just because you have a powerful tool sitting in your pocket at all times doesn’t mean that guarantees automatic success. 

It’s not like the damn phone comes with instructions on how to actually create compelling and well-composed, self portraits. 

The problem faced by many people is while capturing good photos is a pain in the ass on your own, they, nonetheless, are valuable currency in this day and age.

Whether you’re an influencer looking to take better self portraits to promote your sponsored products, a business owner looking to promote services, or someone who has a very active social media presence and loves photography, photos are an important part of the mix. 

And since hiring a photographer 24/7 to capture the photos you want to share isn’t possible, you need to acquire some knowledge on how to capture flattering self portraits.

What if you had the opportunity to approach your smartphone self portraits with the eye and approach of a professional portrait photographer?

What if you could learn the photo fundamentals in under an hour and begin improving your smartphone self portraits immediately?

And what if the investment you paid to learn those fundamentals came at a 25% discount?

Okay, I’ll stop beating around the bush, :) 

For the past couple weeks, I’ve been working on an online course. It’s called:

Shoot-It-Yourself: Develop A Portrait Photographer’s Eye With Your Phone

This 9-module course covers a wide variety of topics related to capturing high-quality, self-portraits with your smartphone, including:

  • Navigating the Basics

  • Composition

  • Stabilizing the moment

  • Lighting

  • Tweaking images in post-production

And much, much more…

One important point to note; I created this course with an IPhone. The good news for you Android and Google Phone users is that the fundamentals shared throughout each module transcends phone type - you simply need to find the corresponding function or mode in your particular model. 

When you understand the basics, that will unlock a level of creativity that you’ve never experienced before when in front of your smartphone camera. 

When flipping through your camera roll, replace those ever-present groans and eye rolls with victory dances based on how good you look! (I was going to say cartwheels, but you know, that could get dangerous for your wrists, lol)

Oh, I mentioned discount before, didn’t I? 

Normally, I have a strict “NO D-WORD” policy, but since this offer is geared towards you folks - my blog subscriber family - and it’s the holidays, so screw it, I’m using it. 

When Shoot-It-Yourself is launched officially in January, it will be a $39.99 investment. 

But, if you’re SUBSCRIBED to my list AND purchase the course by 5PM EST on December 24th, I’m offering it at an official pre-launch rate of $29.99.  

Use that extra $10 bucks to buy a couple pumpkin spice lattes on me, :) 

If you’re scrambling to find a stocking stuffer for a colleague or friend, this would certainly fit the bill - well, it’s a digital product, so it can’t be “stuffed” anywhere other than an inbox, but it’s the thought that counts, right? :) 

Whether you’re interested a copy of SIY for yourself or to purchase this program for a friend, use this Paypal link to make it official. In the Paypal notes, please leave your name and email address OR the name and email for whom you purchased the course.

As soon as the program is street legal and ready to roll, I’ll email that address with a customized coupon code to unlock the modules in my online store, which makes them immediately available for download. 

Sound good?
