************************************************************

FOR ALL OUT OF TOWNERS COMING INTO IE 2009 !

We have been asked this question a lot lately so I thought I would post it up for you all to read.

For booking FLIGHTS :

1. Book ARRIVALS for Sunday at be at : 12pm and NO LATER. This will ensure that you get to our OPENNING PROGRAM which is featuring Dane Sanders from FAST TRACK PHOTOGRAPHY and register and drop off luggage all before that happens.
2. Book DEPARTURES for Thursday to be at: 4PM and NO EARLIER. This will ensure that you will get to yhe airport by our chartered bus service in time to check in and go through security before your flight leaves.

WHERE ARE YOU FLYING TOO ?

• You are needing to FLY DIRECTLY TO : VICTORIA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT in British Columbia, Canada.
• Your departure should be from the same airport as well.

EARLY ARRIVALS THE DAY BEFORE:

• for those of you flying into Victoria the day before, Don will shortly be sending out a mass email with hotel cost for the 1 day stay.
• everyone will be meeting up that Saturday night for a GREET AND MEET at a local pub or lounge. Details will be announced shortly.

OUR BUS CHARTER SERVICE:

There is a small cost for our BUS CHARTER SERVICE.

• $50.00 cdn for BOTH WAYS
• $25.00 cdn for ONE WAY

This is a very very small price to pay considering taking the taxi would be way more than this as well as renting a car that you don't need other than for the ride up to the school and the ride back from the school.

IE SUPER SHOOTS !

Hey all,

So recently we launched our IE SUPER SHOOTS!
These are small little super shoots that will happen 4 x's a year.

The first of these super shoots happened in April at IRONWORKS STUDIO and man it was a blast. I will be posted up some more images shortly. But for now I wanted to post up the winners for the super shoot.

Each Super shoot comes with a Critique night, where our images that we create are critiqued and judged. The winner of each super shoot receives a prize of a HALF PRICE TUITION for Image Explorations and a super Trophy to take home. To top that we also had 3 runners up for the competition and they all received each, a free 16x20 Fine Art Print that will be printed at MacGregor studios !

For more information on future Image Explorations Super shoots either subscribe to our blog here or connect up with us at our IE SUPERSHOOT groups page on Facebook.

Anyways for now here are the images from APRILS supershoot for the winner, and 3 runners up.

Let us know what you think. More images to come shortly.
