    Frequently asked questions

    Inquire as to their experience. Find out their desire type of photography. Take a look at their current photographs. Ask to see what equipment they want to learn on. And get to know their knowledge on photography, as an art, a tool, and as a passion of expressing their attention to their observation of the subject.

    I learned, I taught, I made it a successful business, and I became known to be able to get the shot for the client, the subject, and did not stop until I was satisfied I met those goals.

    I feel the time spent is worth $30.00 per 45 minutes after the first free 1 hour of getting to know the level of the student.

    I decided I had a treasure trove of experience and information that should be shared and is valuable.

    All. Inexperienced young and old, students with experience without the results they wanted, as well as students accomplished in some areas and need help with another type of photography.

    Recently Antelope Canyon of the Navaho Nation, Joshua Tree National Park, and everyday presents new images that need recording.

    The ability to communicate easily w/o feeling at too low of a level to ask any questions.
