My teaching style is based on taking large concepts and breaking them down into smaller pieces that students will learn and then practice. I believe that you should take learning at a slower pace that allows you lots of time to practice the concepts that you have learned. In that way, my teaching is very much like taking musical instrument lessons. I work to accommodate all students at any level and to challenge them, so that they will progress. I have mentored hundreds of students from hobbyists to ones that have gone one to become professional photographers. I believe in the mentoring process.
Students should have a good DSLR or Mirrorless camera to obtain the fullest from my lessons, but anyone at any level, with any equipment can learn and improve their work.
I have worked with all types of students from degree seekers to hobbyists to professionals. Ages have ranged from 9 - 85 years old.
Students should look for a good teacher who is also a good photographer. You should find someone who knows how to teach and has extensive experience doing so. Just because someone can photograph, that does not mean that they can teach well. I have trained as an educator, and still do, and have taught at the university level for 20 years. My methods produce results and students enjoy the learning process with me.
I always enjoy teaching beginning photography workshops because I am passionate about photography and I want to get students excited about it and headed down the right path. I know the best ways to train students on an individual level, to support them, and to help them to grow their skills.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should be clear about what path they want to take, or if they are unsure, then a good instructor can help them get started. I work with students on their level and for their particular needs, whether they just want to develop some skills to photograph their friends and family, or they want to pursue a career as a professional. I want to help everyone attain their goals.
