“That must have been one of the best one day sessions on anything that I have attended recently, and certainly the best one devoted to photography.”
“I also found the structure, format and execution of your workshop to be thoroughly exciting and entertaining – not one sleepy moment in eight hours!”
“The day could not have been better tailored for me and I am most grateful to you for correcting my mistakes and for directing me along new paths for my D300 and CS3.”
“Thank you for a brilliant and information-packed seminar. Your passion for the subject and explanation of over exposure were excellent. We were full of excitement on our journey home and couldn’t wait to get our cameras out the following day.”
“Your seminar on Saturday was excellent. I now actually understand how my camera works and have a far better chance of getting it right when I take a picture. I don't think more than 5 minutes went by without me learning another useful new thing.”
