Photography School

“I was looking for a class under 300 euro.  The content was great.  Even after the first 2 classes, i felt so much more empowered to get the results I wanted.  The tech know-how enabled me to be more creative and play around on a different level-> remove the mystery and enable the magic.  I have really enjoyed your teaching style, very clear and easy to follow/understand.  Thank you”   

-Jen Orum   

“The course completely changed my approach to taking photos – I think more about the desired end result and I know all the different options I can use”  

-Yvonne Baer

“Educative & informative, lots of opportunity to ask questions, share points of views= great!  Concepts of aperture, exposure, etc. were alien to me before , now I understand how things lay together, which really makes photography so much more enjoyable. Great teacher who is enthusiastic about her work/profession- yes, contagious.  Thank you.”
