Your camera has over 400 settings. You need four. The camera company never told you which four.
You bought a nice camera. The photos were supposed to be better. They weren't. So you tried YouTube, tried Auto mode, tried just shooting more. None of that worked because cameras are designed by engineers, not photographers. The four settings you actually need are buried three menus deep.
Photography 1 is a complete photography foundations course. Two days, Saturday and Sunday, 9 AM to 4 PM. You walk in on Saturday shooting in Auto. You walk out Sunday shooting in manual mode and understanding why your photos look the way they do.
This is the same course we run as a six-week series, compressed into one weekend. Same material. Same classroom. Same result. Just faster.
I'm Walter Schnecker. I run C1M Academy in Amherst, NH, a Department of Education licensed school. I’ve worked with 2,000+ students over 20 years, and I specialize in making cameras feel simple.
We start from zero. No experience needed. Bring your camera. If you've been afraid to ask "basic" questions, this is the room where everybody asks them.
October 10th and 11th. 9 AM to 4 PM both days. Amherst, NH. $599. 
Bring a friend and they pay half. Split the savings however you want.

The Craftworkers’ Guild Harvest Craft Shop
Handmade. Local. Heartfelt.
The Craftworkers’ Guild is proud to open its 101st season with the return of our annual Harvest Craft Shop! Join us for the final weekend of the Harvest Shop Thursday, October 8th through Monday, October 12th from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily at the historic Kendall House behind the Bedford Public Library.&nbsp;
This year’s Harvest Shop features the work of nearly 50 local Guild member artisans and craftspeople, showcasing a rich variety of handmade goods — from timeless New England traditions to fresh, modern designs.
“As we open this year’s Harvest Shop, we’re thrilled to highlight what lies at the very core of our mission: work that is handmade, local and deeply heartfelt,” says Carol Davis, President of The Craftworkers’ Guild. “Every piece in the shop tells a story of dedicated local artistry, offering our community a personal connection to the craft that simply can’t be replicated.”
Shoppers will find a curated selection of locally made, juried crafts, with something for everyone — from stocking stuffers to large art pieces, including seasonal décor, photography, fine art and prints, cards, woodworking, textiles, pottery, fiber arts, sewn and knitted items, candles, jewelry, glass, and more. Many items are one-of-a-kind, perfect for gifts or treating yourself.
Proceeds help support the Guild’s ongoing arts education initiatives in the community, continuing our mission to inspire creativity for the next generation of artists and makers.
Stay connected and get a sneak peek at featured items by visiting www.thecraftworkersguild.org, or follow us on Instagram (@craftworkersguild), Twitter/X (@craftworker), and Facebook.
