If you are like me, you take a ton of photos of your pets. My cats have all grown up around the camera, and now they seem to know what to expect when they see it. I try my best to make pages that focus on deeper stories and not just the particular moment. A layout sometimes needs to show a bit more than that one millionth time I photographed my cat playing with string. It never hurts to have a little inspiration and I am happy to say there is a free class that will provide just that.
