What our students say about our teachers

Kat is a wonderful instructor and I really enjoyed the class overall. Her commitment to teaching and to the students always comes through in each class she leads.

—Tracey (Boston)

Kat was a fantastic teacher — really smart and super organized. She gave us excellent feedback and provided lots of useful resources as we continue on our photographic journey. i learned so much and am very happy I took this class.

—Nancy (Chicago)

Lesly's class was great, very inspiring and gave my daily life and family pictures a real purpose. I see the photos in a more artistic way now rather than just being there to document our life and family, and it feels good!

—Lara (France)

Kai's class was brilliant — he's such a good teacher and I hope he does more classes for you. He was so organized with the content and assignments and he left us with some outstanding resources. Wonderful to have met him and I loved rediscovering Black and White photography. Brought me back to the days as a teen in my parents’ basement, developing my own photos on our washer and dryer!

—Jennifer (Monaco)

Thank you Nestor, for a fun and illuminating DIY lighting class. I loved your combined free-wheeling “go for it” approach with the gentle but rigorous critiques. I learned a lot about intentionally “sculpting” with light to create mood and content. I also appreciate your willingness to be vulnerable in showing and talking about your personal work, which meant a lot to me. You created a mini-community of sharing and learning. Muchas gracias!
