You love your photos. Your iPhone is always there to take beautiful pictures of your family and friends and the moments you want to save every day.
When you unboxed that iPhone for the first time, you became a photographer. You thought to yourself, "This is so cool!"
Then, suddenly... you find yourself buried in photos. You can’t find “that” picture. You’ve got a zillion albums. And you’re probably running out of space!
And when it comes to syncing your phone to your computer, figuring out iCloud, and getting your Apple Watch to play along - it's all a bit overwhelming, to say the least.
Have you ever found yourself wishing you could make Apple Photos work the way you thought it would? Wondering why it hasn't made your life easier yet? Longing for the days of film and double prints? If this sounds like you...
YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.
Some people will say you should give up on the whole Apple ecosystem because it's too complicated.
Nonsense. And here's why...
As a lifelong photographer, an iPhone owner since day one, and a former Apple Genius, I can tell you that none of the other systems offer anything close to the complete iPhone to photobook experience that Apple does.
The Apple products you already own give you the unmatched ability to keep your photos organized and to find them easily on your iPhone, Mac computer, and other Apple devices, all within the same cohesive system.
Your Instructor
Photography has been a part of my life since I picked up a camera in high school. Along the way I was a travel and outdoor sports photographer, worked in the printing industry, and was an early Photoshop adopter. I've represented some of the leading digital photography studios before joining Apple as a member of both Genius and Creative teams. Throughout my career I have trained clients and the public on photography, digital photo organizing, desktop publishing and Apple software applications. I love working with people to delight and empower them through the creative use of technology.
