I need a mentor!

[Goldnut]

Is there anyone who lives near me in western PA who would like to help me with learning Photography. I would like to learn from someone who is willing to get together on the weekends. I am pretty busy during the week with my business, so that only leaves weekends. I am a beginner and I want to close the learning curve. Please contact me if you are serious about helping. Regards, Ken

if you cant find someone local, try our official TPF mentor list.
Official Mentors Bio list Photography Forum
or, just find someone here that shoots the type of stuff you want to do and ask them for some help.

I suggest you also contact photographers in Western PA and get an actual formal meet-up. Lew did that for folks in the Mid-Atlantic...great fun. Additionally, check for photography meet-up groups in your area. My experience is that these things usually have a mix of people (from outright beginners who are thinking of buying a point-and-shoot to veterans very willing to help). Not the same as a mentor but you'll probably find people willing to answer questions or steer you in the right direction.
