Congratulations to Maggie Holmes!

Saying goodbye is never easy, even when it's for a happy reason. Maggie Holmes recently announced that her family is expecting a new little boy,and we couldn't be more excited for her. Maggie has been a member of the Studio Calico community since 2008, and we've watched her kids grow up through her pages and mini books. As the Holmes family adds their sixth child to their home, Maggie will be stepping back from her roles at Studio Calico in order to focus on keeping up with those growing kids and on her own brand with Crate Paper.

Maggie has also played a role behind the scenes at SC. For the last few years, Maggie has photographed our kits and shop items. We know that online shopping can sometimes be daunting, and have relied upon Maggie to give you a good look at the products in our kits. As our selection of kits has grown, so has this job! We can't thank her enough for her attention to detail as she's given you your first look at each of the kits every month. I know it's been hard for Maggie to hand this job over to a new photographer, and she's been sharing all of the tips and tricks that she learned along the way.

We didn't want this post to end on a sad note, so we've coordinated a couple of fun giveaways! Maggie has a giveaway of a spot in her popular Photography Workshop, as well as a discount for all of you! And if you pop over to her blog, she just might have something for those of you that love our kits. ;)

This 6 week course is perfect for the beginner or intermediate photographer looking to master the basics of digital photography. You will learn things like aperture, shutter speed, iso, exposure and how to shoot in manual mode in just a few short weeks! You will also explore and learn about creativity, style, composition and lighting. To enter, comment on this post. Giveaway will remain open
