What our students say about our teachers
I enjoyed the Interior View class and the sessions very interesting! Bryan is passionate about interiors and has an easy manner, and he offered suggestions for our images that were helpful. The assignments were challenging for me because I have never shot interiors before and never used a tripod — but I learned a lot.
—Sally (New York City)
I enjoyed the class, and my confidence in working with InDesign is growing — I think that zines will be the perfect medium for me to realize some of my ideas. And thanks for all of your input. It helps me see things in a new way.
—Cynthia (New York City)
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)
As a black-and-white photographer without any art education beyond crayons, I knew I needed to learn color someday. Shala taught me how to think and see in color, so I now seamlessly switch between color and black-and-white based on the emotions I’m trying to convey. She excelled at facilitating our group’s discussions and had terrific links to things we needed to read and look at to help us expand our vision. I am forever grateful for her mentoring and guidance.
—Kevin (New Jersey)
