Want to significantly improve your photos? Want to do it yourself instead of paying someone (like me!!) to do the work?

I offer classes to help you do this regardless whether you are a beginner or an accomplished photography enthusiast.

THE BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND MANY OTHERS IS THAT I OFFER THESE CLASSES AS PRIVATE FOR-YOU-ONLY CLASSES. We work on YOUR photos with YOUR camera and answer YOUR questions as we go along. The classes are a mixture of artful composition and the technical. You need both for great pictures.

THE OTHER DIFFERENCE IS THAT I PROVIDE AN HOUR POST-CLASS SUPPPORT AS PART OF YOUR FEE. IF YOU GET STUCK AT HOME ON A PICTURE, CALL ME OR EMAIL. WE WILL FIX IT TOGETHER.

BEGINNING PHOTOGRAPHY

Bought a camera you just keep in "auto" mode and wish you could get better pix? But don't know what you need to do to make that happen, this class is for you.

This class is $50/hour. Part of your class fee includes a book and handouts so you have something to reference after you leave.

Depending on where you are with photography, this cvlass can be 1-3 hours.

PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS

(or FULL PHOTOSHOP CS6)

This class is for those who want to graduate beyond fast but limited editing programs like iPhoto. I approach it like "you want this effect? then this is what we do". Not interested in going over every tool just because it is there.

This class is $75/hour. Part of your fee includes two books. One is about exposure in camera and the other is a quick illustrated guide I wrote to help students.

Depending on where you are with pjhoto editing, this class can be 1-5 hours (and can be broken up into two classes).

HDR (High Dynamic Range) PHOTOGRAPHY

Many of the images on my site are HDR. Fancy language for "there is a huge range between the darks and lights in this photo."

Contact me for more details.

This class is either $75/hour for basics and $100/hour that includes workflow and basic printing.
