One-on-One Photography Training Classes

One-on-One courses offer students private lessons in either a classroom, professional portrait studio, or in the field.  Course topics range from Basic to Advanced Digital Photography, including all levels in between.  Courses may include training on specific cameras, flashes, studio lighting equipment, and manual exposure settings.  Other course offerings may include advanced lighting techniques, composition, posing, marketing and branding, as well as photo editing and retouching (using most major editing software).

Classes are scheduled for flexibility as instructors offer evening and weekend hours, as well as daytime hours.  Each student has his/her own class schedule, making their classes both customizable and private.

Orientation is included via phone or teleconference meetings as students collaborate with instructors to develop a course plan that is perfect for the skill level, pace, and goals of each student.

There is no age limit or experience requirement. We accept students from beginners to pros in a variety of specialized areas. All classes are completely comprehensive in their content—including field lessons when applicable. Loaner cameras and equipment may be used during class times if needed (by request and availability).
