1 Photography lesson

David is a great teacher and trained me in digital photography software. He taught me not only how to use the software but also the pro's and con's to using it. He had several photography tips and other resources for me to study. He even followed up to check the status of my learning progress. The training was critical for a job opportunity in which I landed the position. I would recommend David anytime for his thorough knowledge in digital photography.

2 Photography lessons

I took two two-hour lessons with Roger and found him to be very knowledgeable and patient while teaching me about photography. It was evident during the lessons that photography is a huge passion of his and it showed through his excitement when talking about it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for photography with me!
Darryl W.

1 Photography lesson

We spoke about his experience through a lot of different conversations. This was in regard to photography, art and other work in photography and video. There is still a lot to learn in video and this was a project for school. The degree I am pursuing has a lot of media in it, and I feel I have the footage needed in the discussions we help in regard to photography and the experience of the tutor.
