What our students say about our teachers

Thank you for a great class — this is a great thing to be able to do now and I know it’s something I’m going to continue doing.

—David (Westchester)

It has been such an inspiring process taking classes with Samantha and Néstor. They’re such dedicated and talented teachers — I owe you both a lot of gratitude.

—MG (Brooklyn)

Lesly is an amazing teacher and human being. She helped me a lot throughout this process of being a new mother. I hope I’ll keep photographing at home for a long-term project, documenting my son’s life and my motherhood experience.

—Cris (Florida)

Thanks, Kai! The class was an enormous learning experience for me. The arc of my understanding between weeks one and four amazed me. I thank you for sharing your encyclopedic knowledge and your methods and I hope we have the chance to experience another class together soon. I can’t wait to get back in the studio to cut and paste.

—Fran (New York City)

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)
