Some Words From Sam About His Washington DC Photography Classes and Online Instruction

I know how frustrating it is when we don’t know what we’re doing regarding photography.

We enjoy photography and making pictures, but when we don’t know what we’re doing, we don’t get the images we want, and then we get so discouraged and want to give it up.

I know. Because that’s what I did, I gave up photography.

But years later, I reignited my interest after being given a camera that was going unused. But this time I found a good class, taught by a good teacher. And because of the guidance provided by that teacher, I learned what I was doing, started enjoying making pictures again, and decided to become a professional photographer and then a professional photography teacher.

The lesson here is don’t give up! Find yourself a suitable class with a good teacher. And, with the guidance of a good teacher and a bit of effort on your part, you can become the best photographer you can be.

Since I can remember, I’ve been a photographer. And I’ve been a professional photographer since the mid-1980s. I started helping friends be better photographers in 1997 and began teaching photography professionally in 1999.

Remember that teacher I mentioned before? I want to be to you who they were to me.

“OK, are you serious about improving your photography skills and knowledge? Are you a novice with a camera you can only use in auto, or a new professional wobbly on your feet? You have found your answer. Sam is absolutely incredible. He has an innate knack for explaining complex and vital photography techniques and concepts in the simplest, most digestible manner you could ever imagine. Sam is a vet photographer with years of amazing experience, and in his classes, he generously transfers all of that knowledge to you. It’s amazing. I took his first series, already signing up for his second and third.
Could not recommend these classes more.” photography classes

“Awesome class!! Well-organized, interactive and engaging the small class. I left feeling much more familiar with my camera and excited to practice what I learned. Sam was a great teacher — good-humored, extremely knowledgeable. He wonderfully articulated what we needed to know, and every minute was of great use. Highly recommend!”

“Having been in education for the last 15 years I am truly impressed with Mr. D’Amico’s teaching style. So many instructors seem as though they are there to talk about themselves or impress you with how much they know and you leave more confused than informed. This was not the case today. The examples and hands-on explanations allowed me to experience metering concepts and for my individual learning style that was critical. I appreciated the patience exhibited and the non-judgmental approach. I can’t wait for the next workshop/class. I am looking forward to it because after today I KNOW I will actually learn whatever the topic is.”
