A space for learning, creating, and connecting through photography

Samantha is a warm person — thoroughly knowledgeable in photography and in still life in particular.  Her enthusiasm is always apparent, and she always points out new directions for her students' photography projects.  

We had a great course with Olga Ginzburg. She sparkles. She’s enthusiastic, encouraging, and lively as a teacher. We were all sorry that five weeks flew by so quickly.

Online classes take many forms, but the best I've experienced have been live online classes with a small cohort of dedicated students and a committed teacher. I've used online classes to help push projects forward, solicit objective feedback from teachers and fellow students, and to explore new approaches to capturing images and building my skills.  

While I was editing a long-term project that eventually became a photo book, Allen Frame was consistently supportive and generous with insightful, inspiring advice that helped me think more deeply about my subject. Because the project involved exploring my personal past, the process was at times psychologically and emotionally challenging. Allen’s guidance, along with the thoughtful responses of my fellow photographers in the class, gave me the support I needed to keep going.

Bryan is an excellent instructor, and it’s been a pleasure to learn from his experience. It is a valuable course, and I have a better starting point for organizing my archive.
