The Perfect Photography Tutor
I feel incredibly lucky to have found Reid as my photography tutor. He is truly exceptional. Reid provides an abundance of well-organized written material to supplement our sessions, which has been invaluable to my learning. Before each lesson, he clearly outlines the topics we’ll cover and any prep I should do, which helps me feel focused and prepared. His teaching style is both accessible and thorough—he explains concepts in a way that really clicks, often using PowerPoint slides to reinforce ideas visually. He’s incredibly patient and always takes the time to answer my questions clearly, no matter how simple or complex. Beyond just photography techniques, Reid has helped me understand image processing, equipment choices, and how to bring creativity and intention into my work. His guidance has boosted both my skills and confidence behind the camera. I genuinely feel like I’ve found the perfect tutor.

Great start to achieving my photography goals
Reid is personable, reliable, and knowledgeable making sure to share tips and trucks (and things to avoid) as I set up my computer, phone, and camera to achieve my photography goals.

Reid not only knows photography well, he answered all my questions. He organized my photo files and showed me shortcuts for getting to my favorite photos quickly in Lightroom. He was professional, friendly, and a good listener.

Solved My Lightroom Crisis
Reid was a lifesaver when I ran into a major issue in Lightroom. I had trouble transferring photos from my computer's hard drive to two separate external drives, and I was convinced I had lost an entire set of images. Reid patiently worked through all three of my drives and helped me recover everything. On top of that, he shared several incredibly useful tips and tricks that have made my workflow much smoother. His expertise and calm guidance made a stressful situation so much easier to handle. I'm so grateful for his help!

Very easy to understand and has wealth of knowledge and experience.
He really knows lightroom and photoshop and can get you completly set up as well as start and connect backups and set up your printer. I asked lots of questions and all were answered.

Outstanding teacher of Lightroom
I have now been studying Lightroom with Reid for several weeks. He is articulate, friendly and obviously a highly experienced photographer, who understands the bells, whistles and nuance to Lightroom, a program that I at first found very intimidating. Reid has shared many of his own settings for Lightroom and has provided insight into how to use some of the program's intricacies to augment and improve photos that I never previously modified after snapping the shutter. I already notice a difference in the pictures that I took on a recent vacation to Iceland. He has my highest recommendation as a photography and Lightroom tutor Gary

Reid has a deep understanding of the technical aspects of photography equipment, and his recommendations have consistently met my needs and expectations. He takes the time to explain the pros and cons of each option, ensuring that I am fully aware of what I am investing in. Additionally, Reid's patience and willingness to answer all my questions have made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Thank you, Reid, for your unwavering support and dedication. I look forward to continuing to learn photography with you, as your insights and knowledge have significantly enhanced my skills and confidence. Your enthusiasm for photography is contagious, and I am excited to see where this journey takes us.
