I am available for lessons. I show techniques, rules of thumb, guidelines, and different ways to create images using a still or video camera. I presently work with my camera, and would be glad to show you what I do and how I do it. Go to www.jimspix.smugmug.com to see my online portfolio.
I currently dive myself into photography for it is a hobby like no other (in my opinion). I want to personally help beginners to have fundamental understandings of using their dslr and photoshop so that they can pursue their passion for taking photos with more ease.
I have taken 4 film classes in high school as well as won second place for Media Production at STN in 2014 where I was in charge of complying a video montage of photographs at the convention (where I found my passion for photography).
I have taken 2 photography college courses.
I have been to a photo workshop in New York City held by National Geographic in May, 2017.
