About

Hello, my name is Louis, Mr. Weiner, or just Weiner. I have been a photographer for well over 20 years. I currently specialize in people, but have worked in just about every area of photography.

I recently ended 11 years of teaching adjunct (part time) at a local college (AI). I am sure I can help almost anyone learn Photography and the business of photography, from the absolute beginner to the part time photog.

I can teach basic camera operations skills to starting a business. You can drive to me or we can meet in the middle. I can teach just about anywhere.

Photography has been my life for more than half my time on this planet, even to this day I love to pick up the camera to photograph. Photographing people is an amazing way to share in their joy, I love to capture people at wonderful moments in life.

I also love to share my joy in photography through teaching others. It is wonderful to see someone else reach their goals, whether it's a better portrait of the little one or their first job in photography.

    Very patience with a noob like me. Easy to follow instructions. Definitely someone worth hiring if you plan on doing photography or in my case, just learn the basics. I look forward to our next lesson.

    Louis is a kind hearted and talented person. Not only did I have the honor of being his student, he was also my wedding photographer. Both experiences were great.

    Louis is by far one of the best teachers I have ever had. I learned so much while he was my teacher. Not just about the technicalities but about running a photography business and learning how the photography industry works. Louis constantly challenged our class with new projects and assignments to keep us thinking creatively. I would recommend Louis to anyone looking to learn more about photography.

    Frequently asked questions

    Typically I would start by discussing what my student would like to learn, once I know this I will tailor my lessons to those needs.  I am also happy to give homework if a student would like to practice what they learned.  Each class can be configured to what we learned last class and what the student wants next.

    I graduated from Brooks Institute of photography in 1992 with a BA with a focus in Advertising photography.
     
    I been practicing photography since graduation, I have worked in almost every area of professional photography.  I currently specialize in people photography, but also work in other areas of photography.
     
    I have taught for 11 years at the art Institute of the Inland Empire, teaching all offered classes in photography.
    I am currently a working photographer, and I love to teach.
