These emails come with the intent of helping you be a better photographer.

But if you're tired of hearing from me, unsubscribe.

And if you want more photography stuff to read, there's a place on the interwebs where past emails I wrote are stored.

You'll find 'em in the "Newsletter Hub."

Remember, I'd like to know what you want to know about photography.

So, if you have any questions, email me at sam@samdamico.com. 

And for what it's worth, when you send me an email unless someone's lookin' over my shoulder, I'm the only one who sees it.

are in the past.

If we're struggling with our photography studies and practice, not making the pictures we want, and feeling frustrated and discouraged, we may be tempted to give up photography in the future.

Keep in mind that past performance does not predict future results.

Granted, if we don't do anything to improve our understanding of photography, chances are good that our future photographs will be similar to our past ones.

When we make an effort to understand photography, which includes camera operation, composition, and light, the improvement of our future photographs gets promising.  

In other words, we do nothing or make an effort to improve.  

The past is done, but all we've got now is the choice of what do we do about it.

Sometimes, we need help with our improvement.  

When that's the case, work together with someone.

Working with someone and improving together provides a resilient, effective, and nurturing experience.

And that someone could be within a group class setting or one-on-one, privately with a teacher; either option is working with someone.

Although any good photography teacher knows their stuff when it comes to photography, any good teacher also knows that every person they work with while teaching helps them become a better teacher.

The point is that working with someone will be more effective in helping us avoid repeating our past photographic frustrations and discouragements and will support and encourage us to improve our photography in the future.

I'll help you be a better photographer—study and practice photography with me. 

Currently scheduled classes are below.

Smaller classes mean better learning, so class sizes are limited to 5 participants plus me.

But smaller classes also mean spots fill up quicker, so sign up soon. 

And what if the timing doesn't work for you in any of my scheduled group classes? Private in-person lessons suited to your schedule are always an option.

And remember, we learn and improve by doing, so practice making at least one picture daily.
