Quality photos leave their subjects looking their best, unlike mouth-staining popsicles and confrontational Christmas-shopping tussles. Learn to capture life from its best angle with this Groupon: for $49, you get a five-hour Beginning Digital Photography course at the South San Francisco Conference Center (a $399 value) from McKay Photography Academy, plus $25 worth of printing services from One Click Pix (a $424 total value). The course takes place on Sunday, July 29, from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.

McKay Photography Academy trains eyes, fingers, and imaginations to work in tandem as a snapshooting dream machine during any one of its classes. The Beginning Digital Photography course instructs 1,000-word wannabes in the relatively new fine art of digital photography, helping camera clutchers understand the intricacies of their instruments and showing them how to use a device's capabilities to produce the desired effects. David and Ally McKay, an award-winning duo recognized by the Professional Photographers of America, guide the class through basics such as manual settings, composition, and downloading before progressing to more advanced aspects. In addition to the $25 voucher from One Click Pix, Groupon holders will also receive a special offer from Canvas by Blossom

McKay Photography Academy

Bearing the titles of Master of Photography and Photographic Craftsman from Professional Photographers of America, David and Ally McKay embody the keen vision and aesthetic prowess that separated good photographers from great ones. They share these skills during classes at McKay Photography Academy, where they train eyes, fingers, and imaginations to work in tandem as a snapshooting dream machine. Their classes help aspiring photographers progress from neophytes to seasoned pros; the Beginning Digital Photography course teaches students to harness the intricacies of their instruments, and the Pro Academy offers inside tips on how to successfully snap wedding portraits, pose recent grads, or tease out candid emotions. When not busy instructing the next generation of shutterbugs, David and Ally also devise photo safaris, which send small teams of photographers to capture shots of famed landmarks including San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge; the Lincoln Memorial of Washington, DC; or Yosemite's 60-foot statue of Yogi Bear.

Groupon Says

The Groupon Guide to: Escaping Your Past

Your past is a haunted place full of people, experiences, and secret government tests you’d rather forget. Follow these steps to clear your mind and your record:

  • Cut ties with your family, friends, and anyone who has a copy of your dental records.

  • Fake your own death using whichever method your father taught you when you were a kid.

  • Secretly attend your own funeral. Write something self-deprecating in the memorial book so that no one suspects that you’re still alive and attending your own funeral.

  • Change your name to be the same as your favorite celebrity. The fun of having a celebrity name will take your mind off of the all the crying you did when you found out you were dead.

  • Help yourself forget about all that stuff by filling your brain with the names of as many different horse breeds and horse facts as you can remember.

  • Congratulations! You’re ready to restart your life as “Freddie Prinze Jr., Celebrity Horse Trainer”.

How can you prove that you weren’t at your own funeral?
