πŸ’¬ What Others Are Saying

β€œWe took a 2 day private workshop with Sam. It was extraordinary. Sam was a great teacher. He showed us how to use the star tracker and gave us all kinds of crucial tips we would not have been able to figure out from YouTube videos. We were able to make amazing photographs of the Milky Way on our own by the second night. Sam is incredibly knowledgeable and patient. I highly recommend him.”

β€œMarvel at the immensity of the cosmos while standing on the precipice of a 2,000ft canyon.”
