Why Tami?

Why choose Tami’s books and mentoring out of the 100’s of photographers out there? Because I am a teacher first. I have taught piano lessons for 15 years, directed choirs, taught Sunday School, and for the past 5 years, I’ve taught Bible study to teenagers at 6:00 in the MORNING! If that doesn’t sharpen your teaching skills, I don’t know what will! I’m committed to making photography accessible. I like clarity and simplicity. I want you to “get it” quickly so that you can move on from the basics to finding your own photography voice.

What are past students saying?

  • Tami is an extremely good and enthusiastic teacher. She is patient and treats every question with equal importance. The lessons were clear and well thought out. I was able to go from always using Aperture Mode and afraid of manual to only wanting to shoot in manual mode from now on! I can’t say enough about how Tami helped me step up my photography skills! I would take any class from her without hesitation.

  • Tami explained the material in simple terms when needed. Her examples were good and Tami was always positive. She is a true professional.

  • I had zero prior knowledge of these concepts, but now I feel like I have a good foundation for using manual on my Canon. The practice that she suggests makes it simple to improve your pictures, yet there is depth to her explanations which allows for people of all different skill levels. I also like her writing style - it’s a witty and fun way to learn photography.
