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.

Wanna be a better photographer?

Enrollment and engagement are crucial to becoming the photographers we wanna become. 
 
Regardless of skill level, all photographers can benefit from both, but enrollment and engagement ain't the same.

Engagement is the joy we have when we get thoroughly involved in the process of our photography studies and practice.

For photographers, everything we do is part of our process, from picking out our camera to critiquing our photographs.  

But the bulk of our engagement happens when we're involved in creating a picture.

On the other hand, our commitment to change is enrollment.

When we're enrolled in the process, it means that when we encounter difficulties, we willingly push through them because the outcome of moving through the difficulty is a part of getting to our goal of being a better photographer.

Of course, engagement and enrollment interrelate a lot.

I see the interplay of enrollment and engagement in the photographers I work with all the time.

And to have one, it's best to have the other because If we really wanna be better photographers, it requires our enrollment.

After all, if we struggle with our engagement, it'll be our enrollment that'll pull us through.

The Photography Basics (Introduction To Photography) group classes starts soon or you can your can learn the same stuff as a series of Private Lessons.
  
More ways to study and practice photography with me are below.

Call me if you need help determining the best course for you.

A note about group class sizes: Did you know that some places that teach photography have up to 25 students in each class? 

Bigger ain't always better.

That's why I limit my group classes to no more than five participants because smaller classes make for better, more effective, and more efficient learning experiences.

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

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

Currently scheduled classes are below.

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.
