About

I love what I do and hopefully it shows both in my work and my teaching. I currently teach photography at the high school level in a south valley charter/homeschool but I also do one on one lessons for those wanting a more individual focused session. You will get way more information than any other regular photos class with one of my classes. Conveniently located in central Ca.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

Focusing in on what they want to specifically learn. Go over either written or video elements to familiarize content then go out and shoot one on one with feedback.
