Dear Photography Enthusiast,
If you’ve ever wanted to take stunning photos (faster than you ever dreamed possible), that delight you in more ways than you can imagine, while doing photography from the comfort of your own backyard, then this will be the most important message you have ever read.
Here’s what this is all about: My name is Amy Renfrey. I’m a professional photographer and teacher, who teaches photography in plain, (everyday) english and loves teaching you (photography enthusiasts) to shoot breathtaking images, immediately.
I’m about to show you how you can transform your images from dull and lifeless into brilliantly powerful works of art, leaping to life with energy and enthusiasm no matter if you’ve been doing photography for ten years or ten days.
It’s very important for you turn that burning passion into stunning images. It’s vital that you be confident and in control of the camera to produce the magic photos you want. Just read this letter, the important rules for good photography, take advantage of what I’m offering and you’ll quickly gain access through the back door into a new world of mind blowing skill and ability.
I’ll show you how to photograph anything, anytime, with any camera easily and quickly.
You see I wasn’t always a pro photographer, or a teacher. Not that long ago I was an enthusiast photographer, (just like you are now) with a burning desire to be intensely skilled in photography. The major problem was that I knew the basics of photography, but not enough to really be overly proud of, or take shots I was able to confidently show the whole world with pride.
It was damn frustrating to tell you the truth. I would shoot all the things I loved and adored, like weddings, family and friends, roses in my garden, the beach, ducks feeding at the lake… but still, after blood, sweat and tears, I still wasn’t making a breakthrough in my photography.
I mean, they were ok, but I didn’t want them to be just “ok”, I wanted them to be “excellent”.
The problem was that with all my time spent shooting; my shots still didn’t look clear or sharp at all. The colour was dull and my photos never had that “blow-you-away”, “jaw-dropping” factor that professional images did.
I looked at photography websites, read books, subscribed to blogs, magazines…you name it I did it.
I relentlessly searched and persisted for anything to help me become a more skilled photographer.
The awful thing was that I knew there was a whole other level I was missing out on; I just didn’t know what it was. I was searching for some missing, hidden secrets that would give me the awe and respect I wanted, from myself and from others.
But it all just eluded me. The technical photography jargon confused me and the simple stuff was way under my level.
I felt like I was in a dark corner.
The professional photographers that I came across were always so damn protective. When I asked for help, or even a simple tip for god sake, they never wanted to share anything.
Sometimes they were such simple questions such as “how do I make my landscape shots look wide, clear and expansive?” And “how to I make portraits look soft and romantic for my friends wedding?”
They acted as if sharing information with me was like stealing money from them. Or asking about their sex life or asking for the launch codes to a nuclear missile.
I made a big mistake by showing some of my photos to a professional photographer once. He laughed at me and said “you’ll never get anywhere with those”.
I was humiliated.
Another time, a photographer crossed his arms defensively and told me I shouldn’t ask professionals things like that, because people might be offended.
Offended? What? Why? Were these people for real?
Things were pretty bleak. After three gruelling years of feeling frustrated and unhappy with my photos I was ready to give it up. I put my precious camera away on the shelf and descended into misery. It was pure gut wrenching agony.
Then, like a genie from a bottle, my prayers were answered. I remember that day as clear as what I had for breakfast this morning.
I decided to take a drive through a beautiful town in my home state. I shot a quick glance out the window and suddenly noticed how amazing the landscape looked. I pulled the car over to the side of the road, mounted the little digital on my cheap, plastic tripod and began taking some shots of that beautiful landscape.
But this time was different.
Instead of shooting a thousand shots and hoping one would turn out I thought carefully about what I was doing. I actually stood there for a while, gazing at the scene, absorbing it all in. I began to truly examine and assess the light, thinking smarter about what I could do with my camera to capture the beautiful light gently drifting across the landscape at that divine moment.
All of a sudden something dawned on me. I began to realise something.
I pressed the shutter button.
When I looked at the photo on the back of the view finder I swear that I stopping breathing for a moment. I am sure my heart skipped a beat. I stared at the photo in pure amazement.
“Holy Crap! I Nailed it!” I said blinking at the camera in disbelief.
I flew home in the car! Cursed the slow drivers on the way home, and arrived at my front door, panting and sweating.
I threw the door open like a crazed fool, bolted into my home office (knocking over the lamp in the hallway) and turned the computer on. I excitedly opened the image in Photoshop and held my breath in anticipation….. Sure enough, there it was!
