What our students say about our teachers


The cyanotype class was super interesting and I liked Claudia's way of sharing very generously her knowledge over a technique she has long been working on; I find it not so common, artists tend to keep their “tricks” for themselves. And I really enjoyed sharing this class with such a wonderful group of people. The challenge was to make us work on something very manual, from a distance and through a video screen and, in my opinion, she succeeded greatly.  
—Lara (France)
Daura and Samanta did a wonderful job facilitating this class — they were super prepared for each class and gave us really helpful resources and video tutorials that I referred to multiple times when trying out assignments. I enjoyed learning other methods of alternative processes (although cyanotype is still my favorite).
—Tina (New Orleans)
Néstor’s Lightroom Classic course just ended and I can’t say enough about how much he taught us — through both the ease with which he walked us through the many aspects of the program but also his ability to listen and use our images and our questions to deepen and extend the learning. It’s a rare teacher who can include the students’ individual needs into their carefully planned agenda — and he does just that!
—Grace (New York City)
Just a short message to say thank you so much for an amazing class! It was lovely and exactly what I needed at this stage of my projects.
—Martyna (Poland)
The lighting class was excellent. Gianni is both a great photographer and a great teacher. He made what can be a complicated subject understandable. Gianni helped me see where I was making mistakes and helped me understand how to fix them. Thank you so much Anja, and Gianni for this class. I am no longer scared of speedlights, and I feel like I just got a bunch of cool new tools that I can’t wait to try out.  
—Deborah (Boston)
