About me

I have enjoyed photography for several years.  In the past I have had the pleasure of teaching junior and senior high school students.  I decided it was time to expand on that and teach others who just wanted to learn about their camera.


What got me started

I have read several books and searched the internet for how-tos, but I still struggled to put all the information to practical use, not that the books were bad - on the contrary, they were just not the best way for me to learn and have it 'stick'.  Only after I was able to discuss aperture, shutter speed, and other camera basics face-to-face with other people did I begin to fully understand the intricacies of achieving the best results.  I am eager to share the same experience with you!

Credentials

I have completed a Professional Photographers course at the New York Institute of Photography.  I enjoyed 2 years of experience with junior and senior high school students.

Workshops

Email for details

If you and 9 friends who wish to learn more about their camera.  I would do a group workshop.  I have props, lights and other things that we can experiment with.  Email me if you are interested and we can work out the details.

Field Trips?

I would love to meet everyone who is local face to face.  I am planning on hosting 'group sessions' about once a month, hopefully more.  Where we can meet, have fun, take pictures and discuss all the concepts we have learned about in the Basic DSLR Course.

Coming soon

Coaching

Frequently asked questions

You’ve got questions. I’ve got answers.

What will I learn from the Basic DSLR Course

You will learn about camera settings such as aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, as well as understand the hows and whys of what takes an image from 'good to great': depth of field, the Exposure triangle, and basic composition.  Along the way, feel free to ask me about other subjects, and I may be able to throw them in as well.

Do I have to finish the course in a specific time?

No. Although I encourage you to set a goal to complete each module within a specific amount of time that works for you, you do not have a limit on how long it takes.
