Questions you may have

Can we work on our real-world photography subjects?
Absolutely. This course is good if you want to take better pictures of your business products, services, or events. It is good for taking better family pictures and portraits. In addition you can always call to discuss your special project.
HOW IS THIS COURSE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER ONLINE PHOTOGRAPHY COURSES?
​You can go at your own pace, stop and start for a year. 
Contacting and speaking with your coach is part of the deal. Most other courses don't offer that.
HOW IS THIS COURSE DIFFERENT THAN A PHOTOGRAPHY PROGRAM AT A PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSITY?
College comes bundled in an extensive package. A beautiful campus, a leisurely pace, and encourages a top-of-the-world attitude. And comes with a price tag to match. 

You go to college in part to rise above the riff-raff. A prestigious "photography" degree impresses a lot of people. But as for your training, they boast long lectures and "small" classes you share with 13 or more others. Name-dropping sounds great during your introduction. But at the end of the day, the results count, not where you went to college.

Check out the experience of your instructor at any college and compare it to the credentials you see here. How many other photographers have worked in the world's finest photo centers like New York, Los Angeles, London, Paris, and Tokyo?
ARE YOU AVAILABLE TO COME TO MY LOCATION AND TRAIN OUR WORKERS/STAFF/TEAM/VOLUNTEERS?
Yes, I travel well. Schedule a meeting to discuss details of your project. ​​

Do you teach selfie and how to be more photogenic?
Yes. I did portfolios for aspiring models. The course can be adjusted to focus on you specific interests. Schedule a meeting and let's talk. No obligation.
