You want to be a better photographer but don’t know where to begin!

The problem is...

You want to be a better photographer but trying to learn on your own is unproductive and improvement does not come fast enough.

Trying to learn from videos without the ability to ask questions or get immediate feedback is frustrating.

No one seems to want to help you get better at your craft.  When you are a self-taught photographer, we know how hard it is to find someone who can help you get better because we were once right where you are.

The good news is you don’t have to learn it all by yourself!
