What our students say about our teachers

This class was spectacular. Liz is spectacular. She is such an organized and patient teacher. I’m so excited to practice and experiment with the techniques she introduced us to.

—Kirsten (Canada)

The class was a deep dive from our personal images and into ourselves and back again! I loved the class and I think all of the participants in this really incredible group did as well…. Teaching a course that involves individual needs as well as the personal creative process is delicate and really requires a great deal of understanding and flexibility; I thought Carlos was extremely sensitive in his approach, and I felt extremely fulfilled and self-aware by the last week of class.

—Glen (Toronto)

I have learned much from Anja and StrudelmediaLive classes. She and the other teachers are very well accomplished on the technical and artistic sides of photography, helping me to grow in both areas. Anja has a creative mind and is very pleasant to work with — very important traits for a photography mentor. I look forward to more classes with her and the other teachers.

—Jay (Oakland)

Allen Frame is a treasure — intelligent, deep, perceptive. We’re fortunate that he is on your faculty.

—Lisa D. (Brooklyn)

The class was great. Néstor is a wonderful teacher, encouraging, critical in the right ways, and super nurturing. I enjoyed class with him so much.
