What our students say about our teachers


I liked Jolanda’s class a lot. It was intense, with a lot of new techniques. What I most liked about the workshop was to learn new techniques to use on a printed image, to work with fabric and to experiment and practice with new materials. Jolanda was super charming and helpful.

I have taken photography classes at most of the renowned schools and organizations in the US, but none are better than those taught by Kai McBride of StrudelmediaLive.  He is an incredibly intelligent and gifted educator who goes out of his way to make every class a memorable experience filled with ‘aha’ moments. Kai has talent galore. Don’t miss his courses!

Daura and Samantha have mastered the not-so-easy task of teaching a class in craft processes very well. They were a good team and guided us through the different processes of cameraless photography with a lot of enthusiasm, youthful drive, and excitement. The documents we received were excellent. Both of them were also very helpful and guided our first steps in a benevolent manner. I really enjoyed the course, I had a lot of fun trying out the different methods, and the results are impressive.

Just a quick note to say that James Prochnik’s “Poems and Pictures” class was fantastic — he is a gifted teacher and image maker. My work experienced a much needed shift during his class and my fellow classmates were equally committed to making new and exciting work. Not only did he introduce us to largely unknown photographers, he was in the trenches with us. His thoughtful critiques are what I imagine MFA students receive at Yale. This class was exactly what I needed, when I needed it. James embodies what StrudelmediaLive is all about: pushing limits to break creative barriers.
