"With a new digital camera in hand, Sandy Weber's 'Capturing the Light: Digital Photography Workshop' transformed my insufficient manual directions into a hands-on experience. Sandy’s professional knowledge, patience and use of time to actually take pictures provided valuable access to the art and fun of photography."
-Barbara Miller Madison, WI
"I took my very first class on digital cameras from Sandy. It was an excellent choice. Sandy is not only competent with cameras. She also has a passion for teaching. She truly wants to bring the beauty provided by the camera into her students' lives. For me she succeeded."
-Ed Steichen Waunakee, WI
"I saw Sandy take kids who are often on the fringes of leadership and through this project give them self-confidence and pride in what they can do. The group gave the girls a chance to produce work and then have others view it and value it. This built the girl’s sense of competence."
