The best photographers rise to the top by practicing, while second-best photographers rise to the top by shooting blackmail photos of the first-best. Snap like a champ with today's Groupon: for $60, you get an on-location photo package that includes a two-hour photo session, an online album, and a $40 print credit at April Hendrick Photography (a $150 value). The on-location photo sessions must take place within 20 miles of downtown Amarillo.

Expert shutterbug April Hendrick, a member of the Professional Photographers Association, incorporates her experience in underwater, newsprint, and portrait photography when choreographing artful photo shoots and aesthetically pleasing alibis. Two-hour photo sessions take place at a location of the subject's choice, which can include a bricked archway, an antique building, a verdant garden, or a less verdant DMV. After smiles are tactfully captured, clients apply a $40 credit toward professionally developed pictures to place above the mantel or on a stranger's refrigerator. Subjects can admire the entire collection of snapshots from the photo session in an online gallery.
