1 Photography lesson

Now that I have more time, I purchased a new Canon G16 and really wanted to get back to a true love of mine, fine tuning my photography skills. Steve was amazing in refreshing/teaching me photography settings/techniques, in addition to helping me with the settings and to get comfortable with my new camera. Steve was able to bring me up to date and left me excited about practicing the new skills and researching more information.

This is the joy of photography. Paul knows the tricks of photography, he has the knowledge, yet I love how he still radiates such joy about the subject. He's also generous minded. His rate per hour is in line with many, less experienced photography tutors. He had to drive an hour to meet with me, and he didn't hesitate to do this. Everything is a matter of timing, and it is cheery that I was ready to meet Paul as my photography tutor.
Paula R.

1 Photography lesson

The session covered two very different areas of photography (capturing city scapes and concert photography). It was clear Marshall had a lot of experience with both of these types of photography and in showing me the basics, taught me a few good tricks of the trade and tips along the way. Marshall was a really nice, friendly person and genuinely, very talented. His enthusiasm for photography was infectious!
